Totem Acoustic Speakers At Fred's Sound Of Music Audio Video Inc.

Totem Acoustic was founded in 1987 by Vincent Bruzzese in Montreal, Canada. The new company's original mission was to develop a totally new transducer, a loudspeaker capable of reproducing a truly musical and involving performance. The goal was to provide something not currently available on the market--an affordable "soul mover" for the music lover.
When the Totem Acoustic Model One was launched in Canada at the end of 1989, it was meant to establish a niche, to compete against any speaker at any price. Visitors at the Toronto CE-EX show were surprised and impressed. How could something so small sound so true, with correct dynamics and make music seem so large .....

The Model-1 Signature has a greater ability to capture midrange subtlety, dynamics and proper timbre without overloading. Stirring and accurate bass response along with pinpoint imaging allow the Model-1 Signature to completely disappear. Midrange reproduction is clearer and more holographically stable, even under huge dynamic swings. Their exemplary harmonic extension will keep you enthralled.

The Totem Arro is the lowest-priced floorstanding speaker, with a 4.5" sandwich cone woofer with dual magnet, and a soft dome tweeter tuned for low resonant frequency. No stand is needed, of course, and spikes are supplied. The Totem Acoustics Arro speaker can perform comfortably even near walls. As with other Totem models, the Arro's small lateral dimensions are a virtue, not a compromise. Its very smallness allows it to project a completely believable stereo image most large speakers cannot approach.  The Arro brings Totem quality to smaller rooms and smaller budgets. 5.1 x 33.5 x 7.1" (HWD).

The Totem Sttaf, uncompromising design engineering, micro-attention to every detail, lengthy critical listening tests -- the attributes long associated with all Totem products -- have resulted in a mini-tower worthy of the Totem nomenclature.  Cabinet performance is enhanced through the use of esotic external veneer and an internal stress-compensation veneer, as well as exclusive space-age borosilicate damping, lock miter joints and specialty wiring, This type of detailing is rare even in the most expensive speakers.  Internally, the cabinet is built with two crossbraces set at slightly different angles, The second crossbrace buttresses the structure and acts as the roof of the lower damping chamber cavity.

Totem Acoustic's Storm offers a compact solution to bass augmentation. Like its big brother, the Thunder, the Storm has many advanced design features, yet adds a few of its own to facilitate multiple uses.
The front firing driver in the Storm shares external cone topography and materials with the two flanking passive units. We believe that this contributes to a more informative and less compressed energy flow. As is the case with the upper echelon Thunder, the Storm is not only designed for cinema/surround applications, but is comfortable in a stereo or multi-channel audio environment.
