Who knows, I haven’t heard them all .
That said, my Totem Signature 1’s ,2200$ new, I paid 900$ for mine 3-4 years ago do not require a sub for the acoustic jazz and classical I listen to .
As most rock is engineered to have big bumps at 80 to 120 hz don’t see why they wouldn’t work there..
The Totems are solid and clear down to 50hz which is all that is required unless Bach organ pieces are your main listening fare . Even then clarity of the reproduction of the next octave above is all you need to be fully into the music .
