Golden Ear Triton7 spk: High-end or just mid -fi??


May need to sell my Acoustic Zen Adagios because I will be moving into a 1 bedroom apartment space (living room is 12.5 X 12.4 ) from a 2 bedroom apartment. Therefore, I need some about the Golden Ear Technology's Triton 7 speakers. either owners or serious auditioners of the Triton 7)

Does this model qualify as high end sound, or just an above average mid-fi home theater speaker?? I have read most of the reviews, and the speakers are almost a "ten" on the RAVE METER.

I have considered stand mounted monitors like the Reference 3A De Capo i ( not the new BE model) Totem's older models like the Arrow, Staff, Hawk which are very good, but still expensive even used; also, they are getting old in the tooth.

Open to other opinions about monitors, or small to medium floorstanders like the Triton 7 Thanks to all

The Triton 7s aren't that much smaller than your Adagios, so you aren't really gaining (or giving up?) that much in relation to size.

I think you are better off with monitors in a room that small. the deCapos are a good choice, as well as offerings from Green Mountain Audio. Both are excellent designs offering stellar performance in small packages.

Having owned Definitive Technology speakers in the 90s, and reading comments on the Goldenear speakers on the internet, it's clear that Sandy Gross puts a high amount of emphasis on bass quantity in his designs.
