I would think with the adjustments they offer should be good to go on the bass end of things. Pretty good size room though! I would be more worried about mids and highs getting lost. I had Triton ones and they were pretty damn good but was in a very different room.
GoldenEar Triton Reference for a large room...
Hi All:
i'm moving into an apartment with a large living room and am considering the GoldenEar Triton Reference speakers.
the issue with the large room (34 ft x 24 ft) is that there is a connected dining room nearby, and it is essentially open to each other, no doors, merely separated by one fireplace, so the bass will "leak" over to the dining room. furthermore, the dining room has a wide hallway that leads to the kitchen, and there is also no doorway separating the dining room and the kitchen.
with all these connected spaces, my concern is that the bass would be lost or somehow discounted to a degree. with that in mind, i am thinking of getting the References rather than the GoldenEar 1.R model, as the References have more robust bass drivers.
may i please ask the good folks here for thoughts, ideas, comments?
thank you in advance.

"with the tritons you can not tune the bass to match the position in the room get a pair of legacys signatures and if more bass is required then a seperate sub
we used to sell the tritons legacys were far better the signatures are hand made in Illinoisand dont use chinese sourced drivers"
Seriously! Now that you don't sell them you are calling them trash. Less than a year ago you made sure everyone knew you were a dealer and talked about how good they were and what a screaming deal they are. Wow |
I should have said in my PM to you that I found the GE to sound best by far with an Odyssey Stratos Plus. High current balsy amp. Specs be damned by I did not find them to sound all that great with a Cayin integrated I had. I don’t buy specs sometimes just gotta try it. They sounded kinda dry and boring with the tubes for some reason. Dunno. My cheap Jolida EL 34 sounds downright fantastic with my S-1ex. Prob should not work on paper. |
Honestly no idea how they would sound with the Anthem AVR. I know that’s one of the better ones but not in the same ballpark as good separates or integrated designed for 2 channel IMO. I’m sure it would be acceptable but not up to par of what they are capable of. If your worried about home theater there are some integrated amps and some preamps that have a home theater bypass. |
