Totem Element Metal vs B&W 803d?

I auditioned all of the above and chose the Totem Element Metal. I just love the “big” open sound that those (semi) full-range 8” drivers create. I haven’t found anything else that matches my Pass components so well (XA30.5 and X1). Superb!!

I don't think Stereo Exchange carries Aerials, but a set of 7T's may be to your liking. (Around $9500 a pair)

I have listened to all three speakers with different amps. I am a former owner of the 803d's. Used them with parasound JC-1s and enjoyed them very much. I never found the tweater to be an issue in my room, but I do enjoy the B&W sound, especially the 803d's. I only sold them to move to Electrostats (ML Summits). I demo'd the cremonas before I bought the 803d's. I found the cremonas to laid back for my taste, not as dynamic as the 803d's. I recently heard the metals and they may replace my Summits. Of course, I heard them on MBL amps. They seemed to fall in between the B&W's and the SF's. Nice tight base with smooth yet precise highs. I enjoyed them. Others opinions may differ.

What is your budget? None of those speakers don't sound good to me either. They are well built and awesome but you are looking for more.

b&w 683s might have more bass than my unifield 3

I auditioned the metal, 803 and Cremonas. Too me the 803 tweeter was too bright. It was a choice between the Cremonas and metal, I went with the Cremonas, as to my ears, the most accurate. I use a Mac MC205 for amp.

803D don't have the bass you desire and don't have bass your Unifield has.
