I have owned the Triton Reference speakers since 2017. When I bought them, they were selling for $8500.00 a pair, then they jumped up to $12,500 a pair. At $8K, they will outperform most speakers close to their price. I drive mine with a McIntosh 300wpc amp and Mac tube preamp. The scale of the presentation is astounding and the bass is fantastic. The mids and highs are perfect to my ears. This is the longest I have ever owned a pair of speakers and I have no plans to change. The cabinets are gorgeous and they take up little floor space.
