I have purchased the YBA set and am thinking about the speakers from Totem (Model 1 Signautre). I need some guidence from someone with more experiance with similar Stereo. This is my first system and hope to finalize it for under $4k. I have a budget of $1300 for the speakers and about $1000 for cables and accesories. Anybody know how these speakers work with YBA? I mainly listen to Spanish Guitar, Flamenco, Jazz and some Pop. Suggestions and critique are welcome. I would much rather experiment with a virtual system than buying and selling different speakers. All help will be appreciated. You can also email me at [email protected] with any suggestions. Thank you all...

I used B & W for years and found them to have a strong sound, very good for a large room. Currently I use Von Schweikert and find them to be more laid back-easy to listen to which I prefer. It depends what you want to do with them... not many speakers in that range will rock out, but some will do more than others.
