Product Overview
The proprietary magnetic design of Totem’s own Torrent woofers require absolutely no crossover components and allows an unadulterated flow of musical energy. The effect is felt as much as it is heard, simultaneously stimulating a physical and even emotional interaction as one listens.
Correspondingly radical tweeter design balances the Torrent spectrum with sparkling clarity, natural phase, and striking accuracy on and off axis.
Some speakers can be the centerpiece of the favorite family area, others the focal point of a dedicated listening room, some the core of a serious recording studio. Fire V2 can – and will – do it all.

Totem's Exclusive Torrent Driver
Totem Torrent drivers are among the most advanced drivers in the world and represent Totem’s relentless drive to push the boundaries of sonic performance. The driver cradle is outfitted with seventeen 2.5-inch long neodymium magnets which employ a proprietary topology in the way they are magnetized. Incredibly, the Torrent drivers do not require a crossover in their complete frequency path, allowing a completely uninterrupted signal flow. Sonically, these drivers offer a midrange with staggering articulation, organic harmonics, speed, clarity and detail extraction.
Titanium Dome Tweeter
The titanium dome tweeter is engineered to perfectly match the performance of the Torrent driver. Its chassis, which consists of the front plate and the rear fins, is constructed out of a single solid piece of metal which allows it to behave as a large radiator that is very efficient at keeping the tweeter stable and cool. This tweeter is designed to produce gigantic imaging that does not shift about in the listening position, even during huge dynamic contrasts and swings.
Unique Cabinet Construction
The Element V2 loudspeaker cabinets feature a complex geometric design, without any parallel surfaces. This design allows the cabinets to have a certain amount of energy that quickly dissipates, harmoniously aiding with the spatial attributes offered by the speakers and without blurring the image or reducing the dynamics. Borosilicate paint on the inside of the cabinets acts like a radiator and maintains cabinet stability and sonic performance for the lifetime of the speakers, unlike traditional fillers used by most speakers, which decay over time.
WBT Platinum Bi-Wire Speaker Terminals
Magnetic Grilles
The Element V2 loudspeakers are outfitted with the coveted WBT Platinum Bi-Wire speaker terminals. The aluminum terminal plate is custom machined and annealed to reduce reverb. The speaker terminals offer adequate spacing for increased comfort when connecting speaker cables.
The included grilles attach to the front baffles using hidden magnets which allows the front of the speaker to achieve a perfectly clean and minimalist appearance.
