Twerk it!
In the first half of the 1990s, most audiophiles were in their 30s and 40s, and deep into the workforce. Thus they missed out on being crammed into coed dorms. But those cramped living quarters were a precursor of things to come. As populations rose, and residential real estate became prohibitively expensive, we continued to cram into tight quarters. And that's why stereotypical audiophiles didn't understand why there was such huge demand for headphones and dinky speakers.
Time goes by too fast. Totem came out with The One in 2007. Although that seems like yesterday, 2007 was actually, as of this writing, 17 years ago.
People continue to ask me about the long-discontinued The One. Although Totem currently make a Signature One, that product is larger than The One.
For many applications and rooms, there's just something right, about a 12"-tall minimonitor, such as The One.
I know that we are not supposed to use cables as tone controls. But the Wireworld Platinum Eclipse was that rare cable, which preserved sparkle. And thus, using PE on The One doubled down on the latter's strengths.
Some time in the mid-1990s, Totem came out with the Mani-2. Constructing posts like these takes thought, time, and care. That said, I'll team up with one of my writing partners, and compose a post comparing and contrasting Totem's Mani-2 and Forest Signature.
