I think you will be very happy with Bryston powering your Mani 2's. I have been using a 250w 4B for the past 9 months and am very satisfied. Plenty of low end authority and power to make the Totems sing beyond their size. A magical combo if ever there was one. I have been very happy with the music they make and they can play big without breaking a sweat, incredible speaker. Totems best in my mind.
Totem Mani 2 Signature: Bryston 14b ST good match?
Hi Guys,
just acquired a totem mani 2 signature. I find that they are a bit underpowered by my existing Mccormack dna 1 deluxe.
I was considering up grading to a 200-300w channel power amp, but now have a chance to acquire a 7 year old Bryston 14st (500WPC). My budget is quite tight after having used a lot of it on the mani2s.
Does anyone have any experience with this amp? I've seen lots of recommendations for the Mani2s (belcanto ref1000s, classe, levinson, mccormack, pass labs etc), but what abt these brystons?
500WPC in theory should be enough, but any idea whether I should try it out?
I will not get a chance to audition them WITH my speakers in my room.... but i'm thinking of taking the chance with them....
THanks a lot :)
