Default Paradigm Monitor vs. Klipsch Reference

So, I just got back from several stores today looking at speakers and I have narrowed it down to (I think / I hope) these two speaker brands. The problem that I'm having is that I haven't actually heard the Paradigm Monitor 9's because nobody in Northern California has them in stock, but they do order them. There is a store in Sacramento, called, Paradyme Sound + Vision, which carries Paradigm speakers, but only the Monitor 7 v6's. (I have read that there is a big difference between the 7's and 9's, which is why I didn't bother listening to them). I was able to hear the center, bookshelf and surrounds and they sounded fantastic.

The other option I have is the Klipsch Reference Series. I was able to hear the exact package listed below and was blown away by the sound and quality. (Although, I'm sure if I heard the complete Paradigm package I would be thinking the same thing).

Which set do you think I should get?

* The room size is 18' X 20' / mostly for movies

Here are my packages listed below. The cost of the two is very similar, so that's really not a factor.

Paradigm Monitor 9 - Floor standing speakers
Paradigm Monitor CC-290 - Center channel speaker
Paradigm Mini Monitor - Bookshelf speakers
Paradigm ADP-190 - Surround speakers

or

Klipsch Reference Series RF-82 - Floor standing speakers
Klipsch Reference Series RC-52 - Center channel speaker
Klipsch Reference Series RB-51 - Bookshelf speakers
Klipsch Reference Series RS-42 - Surround speakers

Any suggestions or help would be GREATLY apprecitated!
