Which Sub. Rel B-1 or Fathom F-113

Good Amp with totem model 1s?
Tubes could sound great with the Totem Model 1, mitigating the harshness of the SEAS metal tweeters. Personally, I think you want to go with more efficient Totem lines like Rainmaker and Sttaf for tube amps. They (tube amps) are like Victoria Secr... 
Good Amp with totem model 1s?
If I were you, I would get either a used Sim/Plinius/Classe or Naim. With these solid state amps, you can connect to your LCD and have great movie sound as well. Go with CJ if you want to try tubes. Totem Storm or REL powered sub combined with Mod...
