Totem Mani-2 and Adcom 555/2


Anyone have any experience with this combo? Thoughts, impressions?
Thanks.

I was hoping someone had experience with the Adcom/Mani2 combo,
but after having more time playing my Manis with the 545, I am thinking I may need an amp that is on the warm side or at least dead neutral.
How about the McCormack DNA-1 with the Manis? Anyone try that?
So far, the best match in the upper part of my price range seems to be the C-J MF2500 or 2500A.
There are B&K M200s on Audiogon, right now. Check them out.

i used to own a pair of odyssey mono blocks and compared to the classe or mcintosh amps, there are on the cool side. if you want a warmer amp, try the classe or mcintosh amps.
I can't speak toward the B&K M200s, but I can tell you that I did run both Forrests and Arro with a B&K 507 S2 and it was aweful. JuNora Jones was so bright it hurt my ears. I honestly thought it was the recordings until I bought different amps and just used the B&K for the pre/pro. Hopefully, the M200s are on a whole different level than the 507. It was a good pre/pro, but I had learned over time (when I switched out the mediocre B&W speakers) to the Totem's, that the highs of the B&K were no good as a receiver.
I run my Manis using a pair of B&K M200 Sonatas. I've owned many B&K amps and the M200's are by far the best IMHO. I've also used many other amps with the Mani's (CJ, Parasound, Bedini, Ayre) and the M200's are by favorite with them. The Manis are reputed to be fatiguing depending on what they're paired with, but this isn't at all an issue with the M200's.

It's not hard to find M200's for ~$500-600 depending on the condition, and at twice that price they're hard to beat. (I noticed there's also a pair listed on ebay right now - I have no relation to the seller).
