INSIDE THE MANI-2 TWEETER: Seas metal-dome, a special order item for Totem, with
technical modifications performed at the Totem factory in Montreal.
WOOFER: Dynaudio 17W76XL (two woofers per speaker)
DESIGN: It is quite unique, with two midrange-woofer drivers arranged back-to-back
in a vented arrangement. One of them is visible from the front, whereas the other is
hidden away inside. The drivers are magnetically shielded.
THE REASON: The reason for this configuration is primarily to decrease distortion
and increase accuracy and focalization energy. This can be done only in a small box. We
believe that the Mani-2 has the most information at midrange and bass frequencies of any
speaker in competition against it, regardless of price! Sound staging is absolutely
incredible, both on and off axis. That exemplifies its absolutely coherent nature. The
sound is holographic with true and accurate musical information. It is musically involving
with all types of material.
The Mani-2 may be bi-wired or bi-amplified.
