Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Recommend bookshelves for $700 Canadian? (about $450 US)

Heard the Totem Mite and absolutely loved it for music listening. It has an interesting presentation, and almost makes things sound "brassy". I know that's not a word you normally hear in the audio world, but I don't know how to describe it. Is this a coloration of the speaker, or the Arcam equipment and Monster cables they were using? Would they be easily powered, and still have the same 'sound' with the Onkyo I'm using? I don't know how they would stand up to home theater/ regular tv/hockey game watching, but loved them for music. And they're so small!! Problem was, my dealer wouldn't budge from retail, tax in. What do these street for in Canadian funds?

I notice the Arro actually gets better reviews, didn't hear that one though, what would one get by jumping up to the Arro's? I did listen to the Rokk's as well when I was there, and in my opinion, they didn't add anything to the Mite that a sub wouldn't cure up.

Any "cheaper" options than the Mite in Canada?

Also, has anyone heard of "Unisound" one dealer in town is trying to push these on me. I notice there's nothing
