Hmm
I have to admit that I haven't encountered too many Totem / Bryston pairings that sounded decent to my ears. More times than not, I find that Totem's tilted up treble is at odds with Bryston's "tell it like it is" approach. This is particularly true with the Model 1 / Signature. To be honest, the only good demo I ever got from a Bryston/Totem system is when I paired a set of European-edition Mani-2 Signatures (different caps) with a B100 SST integrated. Sure, the speakers could have used a bit more juice, but the sound was pretty good.
Otherwise, I feel that most Totem's fair better with electronics from the likes of McIntosh, Accuphase, Naim, Blue Circle Audio, etc.. stuff with low damping and a bit of aural spice. Conversely, I feel that Bryston can sound wonderful when paired with the likes of PMC, Dynaudio, System Audio, and Harbeth.
