Totem Hawks


What amp and cabling are you using with your Totem Hawks ?

I second Drew_w's recommendation. Sim+Totem=goodmatch.

You may want to look into the Cairn integrated, or a YBA integre. Those would also be pretty good matches for the Totems. As far as cabling goes I've found with my forests that Analysis plus works best. I'm using oval 9 now, but am going to upgrade to solo crystal 8 or silver oval (I always mess up their titles, so sorry if I've goofed here). I've used transparent musiclink with them and thought it was a good but not great match. Cardas didn't sound nice at all with them, but I'm not a huge cardas fan. BTW, for cabling I'm referreing to speaker and ICs only.
The good people at Totem also put SimAudio I5 high on their recommended list for the Hawks (in response to my e-mail to them). Plinius 9200 as well.
Thanks everyone ! Well, I guess that my best bet would be a SimAudio I5. I am actually using a Pathos Classic One at the present and I am reasonably happy except for soundstage...not very good at all....maybe an I5 would help. If you have any suggestions on what could help soundstage, please let me know.
I have tried moving the speakers about with little change. My source is mostly an MF XRayV3. I have tried Cardas Cross, Nordost Blue heaven and Totem tress cables.
