Paradigm Monitor 11 or PSB Image T6 or ... ?

[prashantn]

I have a budget of around 60-70k for floor standing speakers to be paired with a A/V receiver. I am looking for speakers which are on the louder side with a good bass to listen to house, electronic, bollywood etc. I have tested all the below brands and liked the Paradigm Monitor 11 and the PSB T6. The Dali was good, however the bass and loudness was higher in the Monitor's compared to the Dali.

I guess I would go in for the Paradigms, but I need some advise on experts on what is their opinion for this model - Monitor 11? Also among the below brands I tested is there any other brand I should test, which I have missed?

Brands I tested:
Dali, Ikon 6
JBL ES-80
MS Mezzo
Paradigm Monitor 11
Xavain XC
PSB Image T6
Polk Audio RTI-A7
Wharfedale 10.7
