The Winds are blowing in your favor.
totem winds destroy dali helicon mk2
ok, the result is in. After three days, I can tell already that the totem winds, just hands down destroy Dali helicon mk2 400. I just traded in my mk2 for the winds.
first off, the winds compete with speakers way way above their price list. Yes I side by side them againts sophias, sonus, and even hanson. With hanson being the winner but at 24 thousand who is doing that now days?
these totems have not even broke in yet and i can tell already, they vanish like no other. dynamics are far better then the helicons. bass is more controled and they keep giving more and more when pushed. all the while staying controled and real. the Dali's became to lean with the mk2 version, i am just amazed that more people really dont line up and give the winds a chance. they are first rate build, in cherry, they look wonderfull with the cuts. you see no seams in the wood. you will be hard press to find a speaker that has this type of sound, quick real sonics, disappears better then most speakers. voices just float, you see far out in the corners of the stage, not only in the front but back. they really do blow way your walls.
i am willing go go out on a line, and say, i bet if you do a blind test with the winds, and three other top speakers in their price range and up to ten thousand more, i bet you will pick the winds 8 out of ten times if you didnt know the price. they are that good. I almost feel like i found a hidden pot of gold that people just forget to look for.
