Totem Acoustics Tribe Towers (TTT) Floorstanding Loudspeakers I've been hunting for a pair of second hand Totem Tribe Towers. Happy to pay for shipping if not local to Brisbane. Thanks - Ken Condition: Good to Excellent Payment Method: Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia By Ken Lipper 0 Comments AUD $4,000 Date: October 21, 2025Oct 21
This looks like a buyer’s market only if the package is complete and the finish is truly excellent; at A$4,000, it feels fair to slightly strong for Totem’s Tribe family, but not an obvious bargain unless this is a fuller bundle with the right accessories. Comparable Tribe-V-era asking prices have shown up around A$3,300 per speaker equivalent in the used market, which puts A$4,000 in the “reasonable if the set is substantial” zone rather than a steal.
The appeal here is the usual Totem formula: compact, high-end architectural speakers with serious dispersion, phase coherence, and a very polished, room-friendly presentation. If the listing includes original mounting hardware, grilles, and any specialist cables/accessories, that adds real value because this is the kind of product people want to install cleanly and keep long term. I’d buy it if the configuration matches your room plan and the accessories are all there; otherwise, the price starts to look more like a convenience premium than a deal.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Totem Acoustics is a Canadian loudspeaker maker founded in 1987 in Montreal, Quebec by Vince Bruzzese. The company’s identity has been built around handcrafted speakers and a distinctly musical, small-scale engineering philosophy rather than broad consumer-electronics diversification.
Totem is best known for loudspeakers across a wide range of formats, including compact standmounts, floorstanders, center channels, subwoofers, and custom-install models. Its catalog is centered on speakers rather than amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, which are not core Totem categories.
In the market, Totem sits in the niche high-end / audiophile space: not a mass-market brand, but a serious specialty manufacturer with long-standing credibility among music-focused buyers. Its reputation is for emotionally engaging sound, compact cabinet design, and a handcrafted Canadian boutique character that appeals to enthusiasts looking above mainstream hi-fi and below ultra-luxury statement brands.
