Hi, first I send greetings to all Goldenear friends: I have read almost all the post of this thread, and I wold like to receive your advice about to take a final decision between the Triton speakers, because where I live I don't have the way to listen, Just a friend of mine have the Triton seven and those are great speakers. The scenario that have is as follow:
My room is considere small, dedicated just to music, I have a pair of Definitive Technology Protowe 400, im pretty happy with this speakers for almost 8 and a half years, so I consider is time to change for a new ones.
I have this set up:
Sources, Sony HAP-S1
Denon DVD SACD 2910
Music Hall MMF 2.1 with Denon MC DL160
Pre NAD C160
Amp NAD C270
Thinking about the room size, is small, I guess the Triton Two is better than the Three, but could be so big to my room, and the Triton Seven lack for the bass that I can have with the Triton Three, even with the Three I can control the bass gain adapting the bass energy to the room, so that I couldn't do with the passive speakers like the Triton Seven and the new Five. So considering the more adequate the Triton Three, the doubt is how far is the Triton three abou the excellent performance of the triton Two and even the sweet Seven, to decide if is really better the Three for my problem scenario, or if is worth it to go for the Triton two. I wold like to include a picture or video, in order to receive a better advice about this doub!
NOTE: I don't have any acoustic treatment, I know is better to have it, I have planing that project too, in this video must of the ambient is blended with the recording and the own acoustic behavior of my room!

Gustavson,
Welcome to the forum and thanks for trusting us for advice. I think most members here recommend getting the best speaker that falls within your budget. To my ear, the difference between the Triton Three and the Triton Two is significant! If the T2s are within your budget, that is the better way to go. I will also add that the powered towers and passive towers sound significantly different as well.
If you really like the Triton Sevens, that may be the way to go unless you feel like you need more bass. Without being able to listen first hand, you're taking a bit of a risk but I think most people here will say you're pretty safe with whatever you decide. Please let us know what you decide and how it all sounds. Happy hunting!
Cheers,
T Cobe

Watched your video, and may I say, "Praise the Lord"...finally, we've got a man that knows good music. Aside for the need for Acoustic treatment, rugs/wall panels, your system sounds pretty good. If better bass response is important (it better be) then the Triton Two is for you. I've owned mine for about 27 months. They are hands down the best speakers I've owned in the past 36 years...it's hard to beat that HFVR tweeter and phenomenal built-in sub. The T2's are not to large for your room. With the use of the low -frequency level control knob you can perfectly tune the output level to match your room, as well as to meet your own personal listening preferences.
Whichever GE speaker you choose...you'll be happy. After you get them set-up and broken in, join us on "Currently Playing"...would love too hear what you are listening to.

Welcome to the forum and great question Gustavson,
As has been said, and VERY well by the two respondents so far, you are looking in exactly the right place to find a super great speaker and make you system SING!!!!!!!
And I too recommend the Triton 2s, I have the 3s and 7s and they are wonderful, but the Triton 2s are WELL Worth the extra cost, you will not regret getting a little more now as they will pay huge sonic dividends for the future, many years!!!!!
I agree with everything said, have fun with this, you will do great!!!!!
God Bless,
Wayne

Hello Gustavson, based on room size and your comments I would recommend the Triton 2s. You really cant go wrong with these speakers. If you end up with a larger room the 2's can grow with you. You get the powered subs that have a really powerful clean low end. The built in DSP handles the crossover, its a fantastic combination. An obvious bonus of the powered subs is your main amp does not have to drive the low frequencies.
Enjoy!!!
Enjoy!!!

wow, thanks for your good comments and your recommendations, I wold like to say this, if I decide for the Triton Two, the problem here isn't the bass energy in this small room but is about the how high is the tweeter position regarding the listening position, and in reference of the room size, so taking in account your opinion about the Triton Two is better acquisition, even the little differences between the Three, if I decide to go for the Three, I wouldn't have to be nonconforming or the doubt about wish to have or pruchased the Triton Two! But as I mentioned, the problem maybe the triton two are so big to the high tweeter level of listening position in reference the size room!
the other important thing is , the triton two is out of my budget , maybe in the further time I can save more money to purchase the two, but the international economy situation make the prices fluctuate a lot in my case!
I add another video link, with a different music, I talk in spanish, because I'm from Monterrey México, and I used this video to explain something in a facebook group that I have. I just want to share you just to explained well as example!
Hope you can watch the video!
