Since when did this happen?
I was in the Millrise location, buying the cheapest 6 by 9's I could find, and since there was only one till open and about 74 people in line up, I decided to meander over to the home audio, and noticed a very small amount of loudspeakers on the shelf... what the? Okay, maybe they're in one of those home theatre rooms.
check one of the rooms out and instantly noticed the Totem 5.1 set! Hardly containing my excitement I rushed to look in the other room to see if they had more, and low and behold... a pair of Hawks set in the room in front of the couch! These are probably one of these finest set of speakers I have ever heard, and now a local store is carrying them? Wait, not only local, but A&B Sound?!?
Just wondering if maybe it's only this store, or all of them, or if anyone else noticed them there, or maybe I was on glue that day... ?!?
If this is true, then I'm going to spending a lot of time at A&B sound pretending like I'm interested in buyign those speakers!

A&B Sound is now a full line dealer for Totem Acoustics and also recently picked up the Parasound Halo series of pre-power.(with the classic series coming when the new ones are released)
The Totems are amazing.
Instead of spending your time there, buy some and enjoy 'em your house.

Full line won't be stocked at all stores, but it's all available, and each store will have some.

I have a pair of the Totem Forest. Unbelievable speakers...the imaging is breathtaking. The bottom end is very impressive as well. Relatively flat response right down to 32hz with minor roll off down to about 28hz. Not bad for a 6.5" speaker!
The woofers used to be Dynaudio, but now they're Hi-Vi Research.
I found these speakers to be the perfect jazz or classical speaker, even rap etc..., but they fall short in the metal and hard rock genres.
