Non-rear ported Speakers


First, I have read that front ported speakers are not sonically viable. Any credence to that minority opinion? 
Second, I am finding them enjoyable in my near-near field garage system. Small Ushers and Monitor Bronze 2. 
Looking to add a third under $800, new or used. Any suggestions? Looking strongly at the Triangle Bro3. Sealed options are fine.
Mishmash of integrated amplification. Vintage Pioneer A-51. Various class A/B, D, T. Garage is experiment city.
Near-near field about 3 feet. I brush my teeth with the music down here.

@jpwarren58  Did you end up purchasing the Triangle Bro3 speakers?  If you did how do you like them?  I am thinking about purchasing a pair.  Great buzz about them with the usual you tube reviewers.
@jpwarren58  Thanks, hopefully it won't take that long to receive it.  In any case I will look forward to your thoughts.  
As mentioned above, I am also in the market for a pair of inexpensive bookshelf speakers and likely will purchase the Triangle BRO3, for being  $550 not to much on the line if I don't like them.  They have received the usual buzz from the you tuber reviewers but then one step above.

Erik, a lifetime ago I owned the Triangle Antals, which sounded fine with my Museatex Metiner preamp and monos, but yes a bit forward due to their metal dome tweeters.  These new bookshelf speakers have a soft silk dome tweeter.
