Totem model 1 with svs sb13 ultra or Forest


Hi,

This is my first post on audiogon. I currently own a pair of totem model 1's (original not sig). I really like them but would like some more bass. I'm considering a couple of options. I'm thinking I could buy an SVS sb13 ultra (cost 1600) or I'm thinking I could sell the model 1's and get a used pair of totem forests (net cost after selling model 1's 1000). If I do this, I would really like to avoid buying a different amp. I currently have a Parasound 2250 which has more than enough current to drive the model 1's.

I live in a medium sized apartment but eventually (three years from now) will move to a larger place. My setup is in my living room which is 14 ft long and 12 ft wide. I listen to everything from country and indie to electronica and hip hop.

Thanks,
Zach

Thanks for your replies. If I went the mani route, would the parasound 2250 have enough current to drive the mani 2's?
Thanks for your reply michael. Do you have any recommendations for large monitors that can reach down around 30 hz? I'm looking at the mani 2's because I really like the sound of the model 1's. Any other recommendations?
Thanks Al. That's very helpful. I would rather not have to buy another power amp if I switch speakers (for money and sanity reasons).
