Totem Mani 2 and Ps Audio BHK 250


Hello!

I’m evaluating some loudspeakers to pair with my new Ps Audio power amp, what do you think about the Mani 2s, could they be a good match?

Any other suggestions in the 2000 - 3000$ range, used?

Thank you very much

Yes, the Mani’s do have the ability to throw out a soundstage, but I always thought of it more deep than wide. I remember the first time I heard them, it sounded like there were instruments & performers 6 feet behind where the Mani’s were...and every time I’ve heard them since, I got the same impression. Very dimensional front to back.

That's perfect as that is the kind of soundstage that I prefer, and I think that maybe it should be possible to work around width by increasing the speakers distance and/or their angle...

I have owned a couple of pairs of Totem's Mani 2's, along with several other Totem's at the time. The Mani's are extremely hard to drive. Not sure if 250 watts of a great amp like the BHK will be enough. The best my Mani's sounded is when I paired them with the 1000 watt Mcintosh mono's. They sang.
