You don’t need to pay a high price for great music
Craftsmanship is a dying virtue in the electronics world I’m afraid to say. Equipment that was once hand-crafted by skilled tradesman and artisans has given way to mass produced commodities from off-shore factories. Totem Acoustic speakers are the exception to that trend. Totem Acoustic is a small Montreal company that has been working tirelessly for the last 25 years building some of the world’s best speakers.
What is even more remarkable is that their products are still affordably priced and well within the reach of any music lover. Their “Dreamcatcher” speakers were recently reviewed by Stereophile magazine: “The Totem Dreamcatcher is more than a nearly flawless affordable bookshelf speaker that competes with speakers at triple its price. Never before have I heard a small speaker whose sound was so enticing and intoxicating that it made me want to never stop listening. Of all the speakers I've reviewed in the last 28 years, I have never enjoyed music more through anything else, regardless of price.”

Even with thousand of dollars of gear at our disposal, the Dreamcatcher is the speaker we use enjoy music around our front counter. If you love music, you owe it to yourself to listen to the unique offerings from Totem Acoustics.
The Totem Arro is one of the most unique speakers on the market. It is a floor standing "tower" but with a tiny footprint of only 5"x7" it virtually disappears into most room. It offers music lovers the opportunity to enjoy great sound without huge boxes. For those that may want better bass extension, their bigger brothers the Sttaf speaker are only a bit larger but off richer, fuller bass wit the same transparency and dynamics that has made Totem Acoutic famous.
It was 1990 when we discovered Totem Acoustics and the now legendary Model One. It was love at first sight. It was just the right speaker for its time. A compact mini-monitor offering spacious imaging, shocking dynamics and controlled, articulate bass. This one speaker launched a remarkable company and an entire series of best in class, high performance monitors.
Once again Totem Acoustics has created a line of speakers that will define a category: Audiophile on-wall speakers. Most on-wall speakers are created with one goal in mind- look pretty next to a flat panel TV. The Totem Tribe speakers have raised the bar creating a whole new category of architectural speakers. The Tribe speakers offer musical presentation, imaging and dynamics that hold their own against stand mounted or floor standing speakers. Unable to find drivers that could provide big-box performance in a compact enclosure, Totem created entirely new bass drivers unlike anything on the market today. Listen to the Tribes and discover how you can indulge in uncompromised sound with uncompromised aesthetics.
