FWIW the Forests are the most efficient of the choices mentioned above. You should have no amp issues as far as power is concerned, unless, it's simply too much power (can happen). Forests are working well for me in a smaller room than yours, but I am using low powered tubes. Used to be in a huge room, an open Kitchen/living room. Same amps and also great (but different presentation) sound.
Totem model 1 with svs sb13 ultra or Forest
Hi,
This is my first post on audiogon. I currently own a pair of totem model 1's (original not sig). I really like them but would like some more bass. I'm considering a couple of options. I'm thinking I could buy an SVS sb13 ultra (cost 1600) or I'm thinking I could sell the model 1's and get a used pair of totem forests (net cost after selling model 1's 1000). If I do this, I would really like to avoid buying a different amp. I currently have a Parasound 2250 which has more than enough current to drive the model 1's.
I live in a medium sized apartment but eventually (three years from now) will move to a larger place. My setup is in my living room which is 14 ft long and 12 ft wide. I listen to everything from country and indie to electronica and hip hop.
Thanks,
Zach
