The Sky is a great speaker for the price point so I expect the tower version to be even better. It has a really wide dispersion compared to the other Totem models which makes it sound bigger than similar sized speakers. It is fairly easy to drive as well. I had no issues pairing it with a MOON 220i, ACE and Arcam A29 playing at loud levels. The new Signature One should be pretty awesome but I haven’t had a chance to hear it.
The Hawk is an interesting product as it can be disappointing or spectacular depending on the source and amp being used. Paired with the right gear I like it more than the Forest and Forest Signature (the Signature might be the worst value in Totem history.) The custom Revelator is really something special. Two amps that paired perfectly with the Hawks were the Devialet D-Premier and Wells Audio Majestic. IMO the downside of the Hawk is what it can cost to get them performing at a high level. I did have some luck with a Shanling A300 which can be purchased at a pretty low price on the used market. Your NAD would do the trick but if you listen at reasonable levels even an entry level MOON will deliver the goods. I can’t stress enough how important it is to give these speakers room.
