Opinions of GoldenEar Triton 1


I'm moving to a larger house and want some new speakers.  In spite of the cheesy name the GoldenEar Triton 1 looks like an interesting candidate. It's been a long time since I listened to a ribbon tweeter but I remember liking them.  Will some of you who have experience with these speakers please comment on what you did and did not like about them?  Also, what other choices in that price range stand out as being a "bargain"?  
Thanks for your comments.

Most of the current show demos with the Triton 1r the speakers sound very smooth in the top end
.

Good, then I'm sure an extended listening session with them will do nothing but gain the listener's accolades as well.

The Triton is not a ribbon. It is an AMT.

Having said that, I love good AMTs and can't listen to GE for more than 30 seconds without feeling ear pain.

When auditioning them I strongly recommend you listen to horns for an extended period. :)


Best,
