I've been called a lot of things over the years.... but never eloquent! Thanks!
You made a good move with the Totems. They will hold their value well. Maybe you'll get a chance to try the Ohms someday if desired with little or no financial loss along the way.
I bought my Ohm 2 Series 3, which are still relative unknowns to many and are hard to distinguish visibly from their older, much more commonly found and less refined ancestors, for only $600 or so second hand here on Agon last year.
Ohm micro walshs come up here and on ebay once in a while. They are much easier to identify by appearance for what they are (all micros use series 3 drivers). They typically bring $600-$800 or so used from what I've seen.
The Totems would easily bring that or more should you ever decide to try something different I believe. So both in terms of sound and financially, you made a good investment.
People who might spend tens of thousands for MBL or other high end omnis otherwise are the ones I hope I might convince that it may not be necessary to spend that kind of money out of the gate on speakers in order to get the kind of sound they are looking for.
