Which speaker is better

i have listened to the sonus faber and just recently to the se 25 dynaudio at he2003. both are very nice speakers. they are both much more musical than the b&w's. i would look into/audition the speakers from totem. i have a couple pairs of their speakers currently and i think the speakers vince (owner of totem) had in the totem room at he2003 (hawk and forest speakers) sounded better than either the dynaudio se25 or the sonus faber at a much more reasonable cost. even if the totem were the same price, i would prefer them over the others.

Jackmontreal, i still have a pair of ess heil air transformer speakers. I used these for over 20 years but they have been in a closet for the last 5 years. I really liked them.
