I currently own Triton Reference speakers paired with PS Audio electronics and Transparent Audio cables. Previously, I owned Triton Ones and sampled them with 6 different quality integrated amps and three DAC’s, and I have really come to love the Triton sound and ease of use. The Triton Reference has a larger soundstage than the One with greater imaging and the best controlled bass I’ve personally heard from a loudspeaker. The midrange and treble are very precise and natural without being fatiguing.
I do prefer the sound of quality tube amps with these speakers and currently have Tungsram PCC88 tubes in my BHK pre-amp and amp. It sounds amazing with the Reference. These speakers are ultra efficient, and I would love to hear them with a quality SET tube amp.
The bass control is a huge bonus for matching the speakers to different sized rooms, plus I also use my reference system as a two channel home theatre so it’s nice to be able to turn the dial up for a more dynamic movie experience. Needless to say I’m a fan of the Reference. I haven’t heard a better speaker at this price point and they are easy to set up.
The biggest problem I’ve had with the Tritons is gear upgrading. Every time I buy a better DAC or amp, it reveals more detail and nuance with these speakers. That’s how I ended up with separates that retail for $24K and $8.5K speakers!
