Mani-2 sounds like a floorstander. Except it is a monitor. Accurate and musical at the same time.
I never heard Totem 1. If you have the proper amp, I'd go with Mani-2 Sig instead of anything else. You most likely won't need a sub. But remember, amplifier will be the key. If you have a lesser quality amp, then you may want to consider other speaker. In which case B&Ws are out of the picture as well. They too need a very good amplification. With B&Ws, if you don't have proper amplification, they may sound ugly.
