If you enjoy listening to music, you are definitely going to hear a difference. The NAD and Totem are a great combination for a 2 channel setup. For starters, Totem speakers need high power and current which the NAD has.

It’s a matter of priorities; the Denon/Totem system will sound different for listening to music, but you’ll gain a HT setup. What is the Gallo system for?

I’m not sure, but you may be able to keep the NAD as your amp and hook up the Denon to the NAD’s Tape Loop and have it pass thru the amp for HT purposes.
 Somebody on the forum with more HT experience can probably advise if this is possible.
adetunde,
You're making the right decision to keep the NAD. If you're looking for a TT, I suggest starting a new thread in the Analogue section.
List your system; NAD, Totems, cables, size of room, and the types of music you listen to.
Also include if this is your 1st TT and if you have a record collection.

There are many recent threads asking for TT advice. You can look thru the Analogue Forum or use key words in the Archives.
For new plug and play TTs, the same names keep popping up... Rega, Pro-ject Debut Carbon DC, Audio Technica, Music Hall mmf2.2. The other option is used.
