Dynaudio Contour 1.1 vs Totem Model 1


I am looking for a pair of small bookshelf speakers to pair with a Cary cad 300 sei and these two are at the top of my list. There is a $1000 price difference in favour of the Dynaudio. But, if that were to be disregarded, which one is the better speaker. I have not heard the Dynaudio so I cannot make a personal judgement.

Not sure if you mean The Totem Model-1 Signature or Totem's Limited Edition The One. It can be a little confusing.

I currently have Totem's Limited Edition The One and prior to that the Dynaudio Focus 140. I understand that the Focus 140 is a lower echelon speaker compared to the Contour 1.1.

FWIW: I much prefer the Totem speaker in my system and room. It is more musical, tuneful and refined. I say that while actually enjoying the Dynaudio. The Totems were for me a clear step up.

Perhaps that will be helpful...........
