What, no morning workout?
Sorry, that comment about "clowns" was a bit knee-jerk, but it didn't relate to the Triton Ones, it related to the other comments about the brand and the existing models. You're right, only a few hundred people have heard the Ones (but that's about to change real soon). The ones that have, and have commented, are just the most trusted voices in our industry. In case anyone missed it,

to read what they said.
Regarding the rest, I can't really comment, I believe those that work for a company should not comment unless they identify themselves accordingly so their biases are obvious, in which case their message is lost.
I don't have that restriction here though.
Here's some thoughts in reaction to:
-Twos, Threes and Sevens sounded uninspiring: C'mon, really. Bad demo, bad setup or just not true.
-Line is hyped: How exactly would one get the most respected reviewers in the industry* to write those reviews, and the most critical magazines to grant us so many product of the year awards? The hype is the reality of a breakthrough line of speakers.
-The One is just more sub (not that there's anything wrong with that, right Wayne?): The only thing the One has completely in common with the other models is the tweeter, everything else is a significant "tweak" to the design.
-The review was about Sandy: OK, it did focus quite a bit on the man, but as Darryl said, words were hard to find to describe them. Wait for a seven page TAS or Stereophile review for that, like the Triton Twos and Aons received.

To name a few, in no particular order: Robert Harley, Dennis Burger, Al Griffin, Robert Deutsch, Doug Schneider, Piero Gabouri, Darryl Wilkinson, Adrienne Maxwell, Mark Fleischman, Mike Mettler, Caleb Denison, Steve Gutenberg ... and my apologies to all the people I left off that list.)
