Mindi Abair / Life Less Ordinary (2006) -- Slinky

Nice riff...from her sweet and innocent days. Play this one loud and you will be rewarded with a very detailed, dynamic sound.

Mindi Abair / In Hi-Fi Stereo (2010) -- Anyway Way You Wanna

Her best endeavor to date. The entire cd (product) is a sonic treat. Jaw dropping sax with a couple of vocal tracks thrown in for good measure.

Never ceases to amaze me how loudly the T2's can play and retain their composure. Blistering sound with absolute clarity...not a bad trait to have.

A very good point and one that gets missed a lot, the Tritons play loud without the stress that typically makes loud playback hard to take. They are a joy to listen to loud, and you can do it without huge power. I would say they play louder, more pleasantly, than any high-end loudspeaker I have ever owned or heard (and I'm pretty sure I've been exposed to just about everything at one point or another).

Ditto on my end, though I'm sure I haven't heard as many different speakers as Moderator Dude. These are the first speakers I have ever owned, or listened to, where I never feel a need to "Turn down the treble, or the volume" because the music went from pleasant to unenjoyable as I added volume . Most speakers just move to the HARSH side at some point, especially in the treble range, when more volume is added. Not GEt's. SMOOTH AND RICH AT ANY VOLUME....

Great song from a fantastic album. My turn for some loud music. This is not a great sounding album but this is as good as I've heard it.

Cheers,
