I didn't hear the Reference 3A Dulcets (though the same dealer that had the Totems also had them), but I helped a friend put together a system, and he ended up with the Arros. I am very impressed with them in this price range. Their soundstange and imaging is very good, and vocals were very natural. For music with a decent amount of low frequency program, though, I would recommend a subwoofer if you like to have any volume. For quiet listening, though, they have an amazing amount of low end, considering the 4" woofer.
Small speakers - Totem Arro / Reference 3a Dulcet
Looking for ~1k used speakers for second small room. Has anyone compared both of these speakers and would be kind enough to share their strengths and weaknesses? The room is about 13'x12', I listen to country, vocals, and some light pop. They would be driven by either a Mcintosh MC240 or an Onix 60W integrated (have access to both, but would like to leave the 240 in main system). Thanks,
Dave
