Which is the best speaker to buy ?

I currently have the Audio Research LS25 MK2 preamp & the Audio Research 100.2 amp with the denon 3910 universal for my source and totem forests for speakers which I want to upgrade. What would you recommend out of these choices or mabe another, Von Schweikert, Wilson sophia, B&W nautilus or usher?

If you're determined to upgrade the speakers, I would recommend auditioning as many as you can. Personally, I'd upgrade your source instead. I think you'll get more reward for the effort, and the rest of your system is already very good. Just my two cents.

Out of you three, I would choose Von Schweikert. Other options Vandersteen Quattro.

What are likes and dislikes of your Forests?

I have never heard the 3910 but, Boa2 maybe be on to something. "I'd upgrade your source instead. I think you'll get more reward for the effort, and the rest of your system is already very good."

Your amp should drive Wilson Sophia or B&W 803D no problems. B&W Nautilus is the previous model. D series is new and better.

I don't think your amp will drive B&W N802 or 802D the way they supposed to be driven. So B&W 803D would be nice.

How do Totem Forest speakers compete with Wilson Sophia or B&W 803D?
