GoldenEar Triton Seven floor standing tower speakers

The Triton Seven brings Speaker-of-the-Year Award winning Triton Series tower speakers’ performance into a more compact size and even more affordable price range. Although it is the first Triton Tower without a built-in powered subwoofer, it still achieves superbly deep, subwoofer-like impactful bass performance by combining advanced drivers with our highly evolved and sophisticated bass-loading technologies. Mike Mettler of Sound Vision called the Triton Seven a “real reference speaker for $1400 a pair...they’ll likely become your next reference speakers, just as they've become mine”. Like the Five, the Seven’s strikingly attractive and acoustically purposeful cabinet provides the same performance benefits, as well as looking great. The Seven’s precise and totally box less imaging characteristics are further enhanced by the narrow front baffle.

Orbiting.
The Triton Seven’s take on Cephas’s acid inflected Crow Magnox unfurled with the same clean lines and polished window vibe I enjoyed during my time with the baby stand mounts. However, the Triton Seven’s delivery showed bigger macro-dynamic swings, more bass slam (no doubt!) and greater overall heft. With an ability to go much lower and louder, coupled with a thicker mid-bass, the floor stander traded the bounce of the Aon 2 for some low frequency warmth and richness. That said, both models proved to be evenly matched on the delicate handling of finer nuances that lay deeper in the music. Both models could be described as equally adept with refinement and finesse. Golden Ear’s HVFR ribbon tweeter is something very special indeed; it makes it that bit harder to return to the more traditional silk/aluminium domes favoured by other manufacturers.
