Dynaudio Evoke 20 vs. Totem Signature One vs. Acoustic Revival Adalante 3
@billynine I greatly enjoyed the Atalante 3s, but sold them for practical purposes, not because I did not like them. Probably TMI but I have a daughter getting married soon and needed more cash flow. Otherwise they would have stayed in place. Some...
