Totem Acoustics Rainmaker
Totem Acoustics Rainmaker bookshelf speaker with a solid mahogany or black ash cabinet, designed for both music and audiovisual applications.
Description
The Rainmaker is a bookshelf speaker from Totem Acoustics, designed for both music listening and use within a Surround setup. It aims to accurately reproduce the detail and structure of tracks, in keeping with the brand's usual sonic choices.
The cabinet is available in a choice of solid mahogany or solid black ash, with cherry and maple as optional finishes. It is built using an interlocking mitre joint construction and incorporates an internal borosilicate damper, a solution intended to limit internal cabinet resonance. The passive crossover is point-to-point wired, a construction method exclusive to Totem, paired with gold-plated dual binding posts that allow for bi-wiring.
This design achieves a result that the brand presents as particularly faithful, with attention to crossover layout and internal wiring going beyond what is usually found on speakers at this level.
The Rainmaker is aimed at enthusiasts seeking a versatile bookshelf speaker, capable of fitting into a stereo system dedicated to music listening as well as a multichannel home cinema system. Its compact size and refined profile also make it a fitting choice for interiors where the aesthetics of audio furniture matter as much as sound performance.
What to check before buying used
Check the condition of the driver surround(s) (foam or rubber), which can harden or tear over time, as well as for any play or unwanted vibration in the cabinet. Inspect the mahogany, ash, cherry or maple cabinetwork for chips, veneer lifting or signs of moisture, and check that the gold-plated bi-wiring posts show no oxidation or looseness. A listening test across the full volume range helps identify any potential fault in the point-to-point crossover or the internal borosilicate damper.
