Totem Model 1

okay, so I bought a Peachtree Nova Pre / 220 combo for a good deal so that's what I went with. I also bought the Monitor Audio's but they don't play as loud as I would like, the bass is not very well defined on some tracks and it is a little too bright, mainly in the mids...

So, should I off the Monitors and get the Totems? It's going to be a 350 dollar jump since Im going to take a loss on the Monitor Audios now...

The Totems are the original Model 1's and not the Signature's.

He has the stands that came with the speakers and I could probably swing them for an extra Benjamin.

If not the Totems, what speaker in the 600 range or less? I like well defined bass, good imaging and good tone, silky vocals, shimmering highs, good dynamics.

I've only ever auditioned Totem Arros but actually was pretty dang impressed by them.

Should I be looking at something else? Dynaudio? ,,,??

keep saving your money for the best speaker you cab drop your dollar on...im impatient so its me calling the kettle...youll a lot more content.

I'd grab them in a blink of an eye once I knew they were in good working order for that price.

If you can buy Model 1's for $600 I'd snap'em up in a heart beat. I sold my original Model 1's awhile ago for +/- $1,000 (can't remember exactly) and felt like I was giving them away.

Thanks Mapman and Marco :)

I think I'll be getting them sunday afternoon. I'll report back and let ya'll know what I do!
