| Recommend amp to drive Totem Winds? You are looking for a high current design that doubles its power as the impedance drops....speaker mfg rating of max power handling is not that important...the key is the impedance and what level the speaker is stable at..nominal 4 ohms, nominal 6... | |

| trying to decide between Cary 303/300 and BAT CD I owned a VKD5se for years...nice organic sound...I switched last year to a Consonance Droplet....cost half as much and I liked the bass and soundstaging better, no loss of detail....Larry | |

| Speakers used under 1K Von Schweikert VR 1's....about $600 and that leaves you with dough to buy some decent stands. | |
| Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews I stopped reading Stereophile years ago...always the same equipment and stratospheric priced rigs being touted...you'd do better to advertize in Audio Asylum or Audiogon IMHOLarry |
