These are going to be linked (short term) to the Zone 2 Outputs of my Denon 2807 AV Amp and later to a Sonos wireless system.
A local dealer gave me a demo of the Totem Dreamcatcher - which I loved until he told me they were £500 at which point I left - pissed off that he had made me want something at double the stated budget!! Now I've raised the bar to include Dynaudio Audience 42's (best price £350), Monitor Audio Silver RS1's (best price £350) or EPOS M5i (£424). So do think these give me a reasonable choice for the money or am I putting "Ferrari wheels on a Corsa"?
The other alternative is to drop in price to the Focal 705V (£250) or B&W686 (£280) which were rather closer to where I started and both sound very good (if not a patch on the Totems)!!!
