Totem winds driven by Sony 5500ES


Considering setting up a 5.1 home theater system based around the Totem Winds plus Forest, Model 1 signature center & Thunder subwoofer, all driven by a Sony STR-DA-5500ES. Will the amp be up to the job? Will the result be sonically acceptable or I will be wasting my money? None of the items yet purchased but would be impossible to demo them in a single UK shop.

Thanking you in advance.

The Sony will do it all day long, But it's not worthy of those speakers.

Look for a Rotel, NAD, B&K etc. receiver.

It's OK to start w/ the Sony, But you'll want to upgrade soon.
