RE: Anyone live w/ planars and "classic" monitors like ls3/5a?

Posted by alfagil on July 23, 2020 at 10:14:11:
I've had an Apogee Stage since the 90s and last year bought a pair of Totem Mani2 to try out the "stand-mounted" bookshelf speaker sound. I don't know if the totems have the "classic" sound but they do a lot of things right. I'd agree that it's a worthwhile quest to have a good planar and a good bookshelf speaker in the house. It keeps things fresh and interesting. I chose the Totems because I was already familiar with the Arro and Model1 which I both liked very much. I've never had the opportunity to listen to Harbeth speakers but if they are anything like Spendors then they should be great.
