Rainmakers vs Hawk

I have heard the rainmakers and really like them. Can anyone who has heard the hawks and the rainmakers tell me how they compare.
Thanks.

I heard the Rainmaker and I did own in the past the Model 1, Hawk and Mani-2 Signature. The Rainmaker are ok but the Hawk are at another level.

NAD 747 rated: 7 X 60 watts Simultaneous Full Disclosure Power 7 X 120 watts Minimum Continuous Power (FTC)

BTW I agree with the other posters, the Hawks are the sweet spot in the entire Totem line -- they have a beautiful, well integrated sound top to bottom, whereas the Rainmakers are less coherent and a bit nasal IMHO.
