Totem Home theatre

My "theater" is anchored by arros. Its a small room as well and I do obviously use a sub with them, and I am very pleased with the results. I also do not use a center speaker as I don't feel I need it with the fantastic imaging of the arros. Like you, I do not need my house rattling at the foundation for a moving musical or movie experience either.

I have Mani 2 Sig's for front, Model 1 Sig for surround and centre, and Mite for the rear surrounds. I am powering them with Cary Audio Cinema 5 and love it. I am using the Velodyne DD12 for the sub and the room is about 32x 18.

Good choice IMHO. Good luck!

I am using Totem Hawks with a Model 1 signature center and my old surrounds for now. I had definitive technology towers before and while the home theater thump isn't the same I find the clarity much greater and just love watching musicals. The center has much cripser dialogue and the music tracks have much more impact. I changed as I use my system about 50% for music and much prefer the Hawks for that.

I also use Arro's for my front left and right speakers of my home theater system. The center channel and rear channels are all PSB Alpha's. The clarity from the Arro's is amazing, and the bass is suprisingly good for their small size.

I've got Arros in front(driven by Bryston) & Dreamcatchers for center/surrounds(driven by NAD AVR) almost gives you the best of hifi/HT world without too much compromise.

This combo is perfect for someone like me living in small area who prefers quality of sound over outright brute force. Of course I have a 10" sub for lows and considering getting another 10" to further fill in lows.

Matched with a good source (CD/DVD) and you'll won't have the itch to upgrade for a long time.
