ProAc D20R vs Totem Forest Signature

Does anyone have experience with these two brands? I am thinking of upgrading my Forest to the ProAc D20R. My Totems are great but have also liked ProAc but at the time Totem was the only thing available where I lived. I have heard the 2.5s and owned the Tablette 2000 many years ago but never heard the new Proac so don't know if this will be any better.

I can't help you with the Totem comparison. I can tell you that the ProAc models with ribbon tweeter are IMO a real improvement. I had the 2.5 and now own the D 40r

The 2.5 were great at the time. They were very inefficient (I think they tested out at about 83 db) but also had very deep bass capability. The d-40r doesn’t go as deep, but has plenty of bass. The highs and midrange in the d-40r is quite superior to the 2.5. I have owned both speakers and had them in house at the same time.

I would look for a used pair of d-40r. They provided a significant upgrade to the 2.5.

If you have a small room I would look for the d-30r.
