Jorge, thanks for your comments!
I am a fan of the older Triangle line, and am looking forward to hearing the new models. My main complaints with the old line were the high frequency harshness, and the tendency of the speakers to produce very hashy sound unless the right electronics were paired with them. But, in the right setup, the sound could be exceptional. And, I love the fact that they are so easy to drive.
I didn't have a problem with the lower frequency response, but I know some people who do. It will be interesting to hear the differences in the bass. I do hope that they didn't go overboard in trying to push more bass out, but I feel the product is in the right hands as deVergnette(sorry if I mispelled it) has a philosophy of sacrificing bass to the aid of the rest of the music. He is a very wise man, and a heck of a loudspeaker designer, I'm confident he'll make the right move. Plus, I have a feeling the way he is going about it is the right way, number of drivers, along the lines of the Bottlehead Straight 8...
Moving to a more relaxed, full bodied sound will be interesting to hear. If the legendary speed of Triangle is kept in all of its measure, this may be a very, very intoxicating combination!
