Hi T Cobe,

Thanks for the recommendation on the box sizes! I think I'll just ask to have them delivered!!! Also, I'll provide more info on the setup when the T1s are in place. We're doing some fairly extensive reorganization of our HT room to consolidate equipment. Since we may be moving soon, it's high time to sell off the non-essentials!

Thx,

Mark

Congrats Mark on the new Triton Ones!!!!
You are building a fantastic home theater, well done!!
I am sure you will enjoy all the music and movies too. Blu ray concerts will be amazing in your theater too!!!!
We are excited for you!!!!
Enjoy, happy listening,
God Bless,
Wayne

Hi Wayne!

Sounds like you'll be enjoying the Triton Ones very soon, yourself! Congratulations!!! I'm still waiting on a shipping notification for my pair, so I'm on hold at the moment...

Thanks,

Mark

Mark, we both be excited, and waiting!!!!
God Bless,
Wayne

Hey guys,

Well, I've had the T1's now for a few days and I must say that I am very impressed! They are easily the best sounding speakers I've ever owned. Previous speakers included KEF 107s and Magnepan 3.6Rs, in addition to various custom and bookshelf speakers. I spent the weekend choosing a good location for them, but have very limited options due to space in our small home theater. These are the first full range speakers I've had in the room, and also listened to, with a critical focus. It would appear that I have some issues in the room with bass frequencies around 50Hz. I played several tracks I know well, but was not hearing the potent bass I am used to hearing on some of these tracks. A good example was the track “The Man's Too Strong” by Dire Straits. The bass was fairly anemic. I ended up trying some bass warble tones I got with my HSU subwoofer and noticed that there was a significant drop around 50Hz. The next tone sample was at 40Hz and the output at my listening position was back to the levels I saw at 60Hz and above. Same for 31.5Hz. However, by 25Hz, the output levels were way down and there was essentially no output at 20Hz. To be fair, the custom speakers I used to have had two 12” VMPS woofers, one 8” VMPS mid bass driver, two 5” JVC midrange drivers and four Philips superdome tweeters, so they could move a lot of air. However, I don't think that's the whole story, here. I have the gain set at 12:00 to provide plenty of headroom and I do feel the bass is more than adequate on most music. So, I think room nodes may be the issue. Any recommendations short of moving?

Thanks!

Mark

Hi warriorant85,

I started with the T1s in my 2 channel setup, and then couldn't listen to music on my 5.1 channel so had to upgrade that to enjoy music in the living room again. So loving the GeT speakers and welcome to the club.
You can see my gear in my signature - sounds like yours is as good or better.
I don't hear any missing frequencies but haven't done a full sweep - I probably should.
On the dropoff - I presume you've looked at your preamp / receiver config and the crossover settings of where the pre starts to send low HZ to the subwoofers? Perhaps its set at 50 or 60 and you are offloading the GeTs too soon. I set mine as low as possible (40 HZ) I think to just have the sub kick in for movies essentially.
Just a thought...
