Totem Arro?

HI folks!

I am in the process of upgrading my almost 20 year old 2 channel setup, and considering the Totem Arros.  They would be replacing a pair of Paradigm Studio 60 V1's and used in conjunction with a NAD C565BEE CD player, a Pro-ject Debut III, and a Rotel preamp/amp.  Ultimately, the amplification may also be replaced, but I'm trying to do one thing at a time.

I would be interested to hear from anyone who has used these speakers for a while and has an opinion.  The reviews seem to be very good and, when I have heard them, they sound very good to me.  They seem to really create a 3D sort of image that I am not getting with the Paradigms. 

Any input would be appreciated!  Thanks!

Diana Krall owns them...

how bad can they be? When I thought I wanted skinny towers I listened to them and really like them, but went with Magnepan MMGs instead. I sacrificed some bass for more detail and a wonderful midrange. A Rythmik subwoofer solved the bass issue and I got even more refinement with the Magnestand modification. That said I could certainly live with the Totem Arro, maybe someday I will if I find what I have to be too unwieldy.
