Seeking advice


I'm trying to decide between the Triangle theta bookshelf speakers and the Monitor audio gold 100 6g. My amp is a Parasound Halo A21 +. Does anyone have any experience with the Triangles? Thank you in advance.

haven’t heard either, I would rather see you restore a compact 3 way with larger woofer and no port, like AR-2ax which also have the advantage of level controls for the mid and tweet to adjust in any space. Dimensions to fit in or on a bookcase or stand.

monitors are only 86.5 db sensitivity, have a rear port, the advantage is you can buy from crutchfield and return them.

triangle’s have front port, 90db sensitivity, who will take a return?

my guess, any speaker with 6 or 6-1/2" largest driver, you will end up adding a sub or two, then change to a 3 way eventually.

compact jbl with 12" woofer, level controls, a bit bigger than the AR-2ax, front port, the level controls are more convenient than in the back, but once adjusted, 

two options

aside from sensitivity, check the impedance, nominal and lowest dips
