Totem Owners....

Never met a Totem I didn't like, and I have a bunch of them! This may be a bit off topic, but their inwalls rule this category!

Of course Zieman loves totem.

He sells them but doesn't disclose that fact here.

Again

I own Totem Forests and like them very much (they replaced Von Schweikert VR2s). I'm not sure you want these for medium-low volume listening. Maybe a different model in the totem line, but the forests sound best at higher volumes in my opinion and with the gear I've had.

Nothing wrong with Totem's at all - excellent speakers - but for what you describe Harbeth's would better fit the bill.

Thank God the thread police (AKA AudioFeil) has shown up on another thread to save all of us from the other evil dealers. Give it a break, because I for one am tired of seeing it on so many threads that I read here. The advice of each and every person here are opinions and should be taken as just that regardless of their affiliation. It has to be up to those reading the thread to audition and listen for themselves before making any decisions. Input often times helps to narrow the search or present options.
