Integrates That Go Well With Totem Forest


Hi Guys
Bit of a dilemma on my part. Went ahead and purchased a pair of Totem Forest thinking that my Primaluna Prologue Two would be able to handle the Forest. I was partially right but the speakers deserve better. I would appreciate any help from Forest owners, my budget is $1500-2000 for a new integrated. Any suggestions?
Thanks

There's a guy on Audiogon selling a CODA CSiB integrated amplifier that would power your Totem Forrest speakers. I use a CODA 10.5r to power my Totem Sttaf speakers with great results. Doug Dale from CODA makes precision, high-quality audio equipment. You'll need to negotiate price with the seller in order to achieve something close to your budget. However, if you can spend a little more, I think you will be very satisfied with the CODA integrated amplifier.
Does new mean actually brand new or just new as in different than what you have now?
Speaker/amp matching is extremely important. Totem's recommended power for the Forest is 50-200w, so it appears the Primaluna's power is just to low.
You might be able to get a demo'd Marantz PM-15S2b from Music Direct for $2000, like I did. Great integrated. Great people to deal with. You'll still have 30 days to decide if you like it or not.

All the best,
