Decware Zen with Paradigm?

Im thinking of purchasing the Decware Zen SE84. My main concern is the efficiency of my Paradigm Studio Reference 20 V.2 speakers. Is anybody using this combo, or simply let me know if this should be an ok match? I think the V.2 have a sensitivity of 89db, maybe 90, but I can't seem to find exact info. Any information appreciated.

NOT a good combo to say the least. Paradigm's want voltage and current and this amp has neither. Sean

Sean is correct. This is not a good match. The Zen can be an excellent amp with the right speakers, but the Pardigms aren't the right speaker!

For a really great combo, check out the Zen with David Dutill's Parker Audio 95 mkII. Nice speaker designed to take advantage of the Decware Zen's strengths.
