In Reply to: Totem Mani2....where's the bass? posted by Oli on May 5, 2007 at 16:01:11:
Well, the Totem Mani-2 is a very nice speaker, one of the nicest I've heard, it has a very flat frequency response down to 30 Hz, not to mention excellent horizontal dispersion. You do pay for the bass response in a small speaker, not only in price, but in efficiency. And, of course, you cannot reasonably expect super high output in the bass with smallish woofers.A friend of mine drives his Mani-2 Signatures with a pair of Bryston 7B monoblock amplifiers, but my dealer thinks a 4B would be fine and has even seen them work well enough with a 3B.
It must be said that the bass response of a speaker in a room is highly dependent on placement.
Of course, if you expect really high volumes of bass, I suggest you look at larger speakers.
