totem arro


I'm considering some arros and I was looking for some feedback from people who have experience with them. What kind of music are the good at reproducing? What kind of amps work best? I hear they are best in small rooms. Whats the maximum room size they excel in? Thanks in advance for helping me out!

Tvad,

I understand your point about reviewers, especially professional reviewers who are paid to do a job.

But that's not what we are here so why judge by those standards? We are just people with a common interest sharing insights and observations, right or wrong.

Of course others will form their opinions based on what one says, so caution is warranted for that reason.

But I believe people should not be discouraged from sharing their experiences, even partial ones, as long as they are honest in disclosing the information that they have to share and are not intentionally obfuscating otherwise useful information on purpose in order to help their particular argument.

Back to the original posters question regarding amps for Arros and room size, don't let their small size fool you. These baby's seem to love lots of power, the more the merrier.

When I heard them, they sounded very nice in a demo room approximately 35X25 feet, but they were sucking as much power as the hefty McIntosh amp that was being used to drive them could throw at them. To their credit, though they didn't shake the rafters, they seemed to thrive on the power and turned it into clear fully formed music without distorting or breaking up, quite a feat for such diminutive guys in a good sized room competing strongly with other larger and more expensive speakers in the same setup as well.

That act reminded my of my Dynaudio monitors and even my way way larger (compared to Arros) "muscle car" OHM 5s which also suck up and thrive on whatever amount of power you throw at them.
