| Amplifier for Totem Forest My Forests get along well with my Plinius integrated. | |
| Edge G3 Integrated vs Plinius 8200 I'm sorry, I misunderstood you cable question, but I think the answer is yes. | |
| Edge G3 Integrated vs Plinius 8200 Zieman- Thanks--I'm using Acoustic Zen bi-wire. | |
| Best upgrade path? Perhaps a little more bottom end, and a little more"oomph"to the presentation. It's hard to single out what I'm looking for specifically because I haven't listened to many other systems. | |
| Paradigm CC v2 to 570 V.3 any benefit I have 100 v 3's matched with 470 center. Very seamless integration. | |
| Best bass response in under $1500 used towers I don't have a lot of comparisons to go off of, but I would say a used pair of Paradigm 100's would deliver very ample bass. | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music Many of Pat Metheny's tunes qualify for me. | |
| Can anyone name that digital front end? Nice to see that Vince B. thought enough of the compatibility of these units to pair them w/ the Forest.When my Ayre shows up in a couple days, I'll havethe same setup. | |

| CD players with volume control ????? The Wadia 301: great-looking CDP, but is it awkward feedingthe discs in upside down? | |
| Wadia 861 vs. Gamut CD1r vs Sonic Frontiers T3/P3 I still have not heard the Gamut, but my understanding (from a dealer) is that there have been substantial delays in availability while they work a kink of some kind out of the product. | |
| What amp. to use with Totem Forest? I very much enjoy my Plinius 8200 mk with my Forests. | |
| Revel "F-30" vs Totem "Forest": Better perfomance? I auditioned both, and ended up with the Forests, though the Revels were impressive, indeed. The bottom end of the Revels was a little better, but I preferred the Totems overall. Ths soundstaging in particular, was impressive.The Revels are a larg... | |
| Totem or B&W? I am more familiar with the Totem line, and would concurwith what a couple others posters mentioned: yes they can really sing, and they shine if mated with goodgear upstream. I have the Forests, and love them. And, as someone else said, Vince Bruz... |
