Looking at the Totem arros, for no particular reason, just the fact that they're small, and hence that means a smaller sound?? Wanna try and extinguish this dreaded bass boom without all the room treatment malarkey. They size up at only 85cm tall, and 13cm wide (+18cm deep). hard to believe such a narrow speaker would actually remain stable enough to play music without distortion! I get on ok with the Lintons, in fact I really like them, but the boom really disappoints with a fair amount (but not all) music. Arros retails at £1800, a lot of dosh for a pair of matchsticks? I did try Neative Motive Sx2 once, but found them a bit strident. I prefer the 'wider' more open sound of the Lintons.
