Thoughs on Totem Rainmakers

Hello,

Thanks to all who helped my with my prior thread on the Totem Hawks.

What are your guys thoughts on the Totem Rainmaker. I must of missed the launch at CES.

Has anyone heard them? How do they sound? I looked for other treads but no one has really given a review on these babies yet.

How easy would they be to drive? The website says 20 watts at 4 ohms. But in the real would how much power do you think it will take to make them sing?

Also sound wise, what other speakers in the totem line would you compare them too?

I know these are cheaper than what I was looking at before, but buy a cheaper speaker will leave more money to get better amplification. The fact that they are easier to drive than other speakers in the totem line up means i can get a high quality integrated, rather than spend more money on seperates.

What integrated amp would you recommend for these around the $1000 USD mark new or used.

Thanks in advance,
Nick

Sound and opinions at audio shows are notoriously inaccurate and subject to suspicion. However, if a room has very good sound it is usually an indication that the components are doing something right. These little speakers sounded VERY big in the Totem room. Most people were laughing and how good the sound was (forget about the price, they just sounded damn good). Definitely worth an audition.

Enjoy,
Bob
