| totem alternatives to totem hawk/forest? I agree with Ghunter on this one. However, I will state that it is my opinion that the Model 1 is closer to the Forest in sonic signature and the Arro (not a bookshelf) is actually closer in tone to the Hawk. | |
| ? Integrated amp, rich warm midrange, tight bass I intend to write a review on my Blue Circle CS Integrated. What you want it delivers. | |
| Accurate vs Musical You can argue all you want that there is no difference between musical and accurate. Using adjectives as such poses problems because people have different ideas of what they mean. I notice a difference so the average Joe posting within this thread... | |
| Accurate vs Musical Gregm,I see your point. My choice of words were not the best. What I meant was a speaker that has a ruler flat FR, limited distortion, and reproduces all the details but does not have the fluidity or emotion that a musical speaker has. I am not a ... | |
| Accurate vs Musical I without a doubt believe there is a difference. I have heard speakers that reproduce a recording perfectly but sounded sterile doing it. Musical to me is one that can reproduce these nuances with fluidity and emotion. I still believe speaker buil... | |
| Led Zeppelin cd box set remastering quality I own the complete studio recordings. It's the best remastering quality Zeppelin CD's out there at the moment. | |
| Music from video clip. I have heard it in a movie before, I am sure. I just wish somebody knew they title so I could shop around for it. | |
| Upgrading to Totem Mani 2's Plinius seperates would be a nice match. Pass Labs & Mani-2 are MMIH - absolutely awesome. The Forest with you're current integrated would be a nice dynamic match. | |

| Replacing Forests??? So whats the plan now? I see you sold you're I-5. Are you atleast considering going back to Arro's? | |
| Small quality HiFi subs reaching 22Hz Upstateaudio,While the Dreamcatcher is a mighty fine musical sub, it it only limited to about 28.5 Hz with proper positioning; furthermore, don't expect it to "slam". Fast and Musical. | |
| Replacing Forests??? i sold Totem for 2 years and I can say without hesitation that Beheme comments towards the 'Hawk' driver being fragile is garbage. Type in Scan-Speak Revelator in any DIY community forum. I remember in early 2004 we had the Hawks doing HT duty in ... | |
| Replacing Forests??? I love the look of the claws. So much so that I got them installed on my Arros. It makes the speaker look much classier and the Art Deco look contrasts nicely with the rich cherry wood. I prefer the Arro's over the staff. Room size would be a fact... | |
| List of Floorstanders around $6500.00 NEW room size could be 20x25 and larger. No associated equipment. Music is diverse, almost everything. | |
