ProAc D20R vs Totem Forest Signature

I can't help you with the Totem comparison. I can tell you that the ProAc models with ribbon tweeter are IMO a real improvement. I had the 2.5 and now own the D 40r

My friend had the 2.5 with ARC gear and the music was so real I loved those speakers some say they were the best ProAc made. How does your current speaker compare to your 2.5s? Which ProAc is close to the 2.5?

Thanks

The 2.5 were great at the time. They were very inefficient (I think they tested out at about 83 db) but also had very deep bass capability. The d-40r doesn’t go as deep, but has plenty of bass. The highs and midrange in the d-40r is quite superior to the 2.5. I have owned both speakers and had them in house at the same time.

I would look for a used pair of d-40r. They provided a significant upgrade to the 2.5.

If you have a small room I would look for the d-30r. 

I have heard both the speakers, but at different place and time. So cannot really compare directly. But the listening impression with the ProAc D30RS was so impressive that I decided to go with ProAcs. The new ProAcs are absolutely not bass shy. I listened to the "Thanks to you" by Boz Scaggs and the speakers did not seem bass shy.

Eventually I went with the D48R model that I currently own and love listening to at every opportunity I get. ProAcs seems to get that midrange so right. And I am with @jperry on D30RS and small room.
