When I purchased the forest I demoed the reference 3 a Vienna and chose the forests instead. They did not have the low end throw like the forests. And here is something interesting chayro. I have put a down payment for a new rp8 by rega and planing on getting a 2m black for it. So hopefully that improves the anolog side. Which I mostly buy vinyl because of the newer artists realizing the better sound quality. Also I love my forests so much already I'm going to use them for a soround setup. So I will always have them. Though I'm getting so much resolution with the Cary gear and the fabulous 303t scad pro even as a dac. I'm starting to notice the limits of a 2 way speaker. Espacialy with daft punk and disclosure the speakers tend lack the imaging and had to keep up in complex music. Though I have a father who owns a used pair of fires running with the same amp. But they do not lack the same as the forests with this kind of complex music. In fact they strangely excel in it. So that's why I was thinking of a 3 way tower maybe the earths or winds?
I am very impressed by the forests and there low end no need for a sub. I am just starting to notice the limitations with a two way compared to a three way, and would like a little more focused midrange. Also in some bass heavy music I notice that the midrange can't stay focused with the lowed bass. I did try out the new Totem Earths with my system. And I could tell that the Earths had no trouble producing the midrange detail that I wanted. Though the bass was not as defined as the forests. But had no trouble producing the low octaves and, also was better to keep up with more bass driven music like techno. Which it acceded in and was so low it filled the room but was so low to here.
