Totem Hawks

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.

Vince ran Totem with Plinius in Montreal in April, so the recommendation of the 9200 isn't surprising.

As to improving soundstage, you might experiment with different floor-speaker base contacts. Are you using spikes on carpet, or the Claws on hardwood? Not sure what will work best for your application. I had very good results with Black Diamond Racing cones under my trusty old Totem Sttafs, on wood veneer floors. Lots of different products with their own fan base...

I am using the claws on hardwood floor. There is no carpet in the room. I have one speakers that is closer to a wall (approx 2 feet) than the other due to furniture arrangement. The one speaker that is closer to the wall is on the shorter wall.
How good are the Hawks supposed to be when it comes to soundstage...that I don't know neither..
