dave_b,No issues at all. I found that a local dealer carries Totem and Revel. I will have a chance to compare the Totem Sigs to the Revel F208. I have heard Revels a long time back and do not recollect their signature sound. But I know many on thi...

2pysyop,Thank You for the recommendation of the Magnepans. I am sure they would sound good in the right system. For my requirements, they are simply too large a speakers and they are slightly less efficient than what I am looking for.dave_b,Don't ...

Thanks for letting me know soix :-)dave_b,Last year I auditioned PSB Imagin3 T3 and the Totem Forest Sigs in DC area at the same dealer. I felt it was a unfair contest, since the PSBs were hooked up to the new NAD separates (M series) while the To... 
"High End" Bluetooth Receivers - Snake Oil?
OP,I feel you should try the newer units from Auris, Arcam, Audioengine, etc. These are phenomenal units. I recently purchased the Auris bluMe for my system and I simply cannot stop streaming Spotify, FolkAlley, etc. I am amazed at the sound quali...

Paraneer,Your feedback on PSB vs Spendor is much appreciated. I am surprised that the Spendor sounded more full bodied than the PSB, since the PSBs have more drivers. You are correct on the Olympica III. They are rated at 35Hz. But the Spendors an...

Paraneer,When I hear the Imagine T3, they had partnered it with the NAD. I feel digital amp tech has not yet caught with Class AB amplification. The Totem Forest Signatures were driven by some nice McIntosh. I felt that was the reason why the NAD ...

Dan,Thank you for the feedback on the Tannoys. I believe I did listen to the Tannoy 10A at AXPONA last year. I believe they were fairly new pair of loudspeakers. Sounded slightly upfront than what I am used to. But will seek out more audition.Para... 
Cable Brands
Clear Day XLRs - I am using these and pretty happy with them. 
Hype, Hyperbole and high price!
Kenny928,I was hoping you would respond to falconboy's post.I would really like to hear your take on that. 
Speaker Placement
OP,My room is slightly smaller than your's. But my positions are very close to what newbee has mentioned. Start there and also keep in mind about the toe-in. That also needs to be accounted for. Like everyone mentioned - it takes a few hours to da...

OP,Why are your screaming (CAPS) in all your posts?Or is that normal for you? 
thanks to Audiogon
ebm,Does it mean that some honest person starting fresh will never take off, going forward? I don't have 20 positive feedbacks. But my buyers are happy (read my latest feedback). It is unfortunate that there are dishonest sellers who do not comple...
