Even though I seem to agree with RGA's opinions about speakers, I have to disagree this time. Personally, I think Totem speakers offer some of the most bang for the buck of all the speakers I have listened to. Definetely, not overpriced (less than 1,000 usd for the standmounted Rainmaker, 1,100 for the Arro). Both are, to me, way better than lots of speakers in that range. Anyway, the only sure way for you to decide is audition, audition, audition.
Have fun.
