Triangle Magellan Duetto 40th Anniversary


I've read such great things about these speakers, and I'm wondering if any members have owned or do own them, or have had other opportunities to hear them, and what their opinions are.

Thanks

I also had them on my Radar for few months - several reviews were all extremely positive on construction and all materials used ( high end crossovers and binding posts etc) as well as sound characteristics similar to my tastes. 

Love the Zebra finish and stylish design including stands. Unfortunately no dealers nearby and I ended up with used SF Nova III’s for same price I just couldn’t pass up. Hope they work out for you!

Welcome to the site @ubercar71s and good luck with your audition @roxy54 they are really gorgeous speakers for sure!

They are beautiful, and that actually has some importance to me because I will be looking at whatever I end up with pretty often, but of course performance comes first.

I actually never heard a triangle speaker, but I have been listening to my pair of old Celestion sl6si stand mounts fo to the last month, and I’ve realized that a small monitor is really what works best in my small 13x11 x9 room. I’ve had much larger speakers, and they worked, but I now think that in this room a good small monitor is better.

I’ve always found dynamics to be very important to me, and Triangle speakers are known for that, and this horn tweeter in particular is supposed to be something really special. I really surprised myself by becoming so interested in these, because weeks ago I took a road trip to California to go to The Show, and I fell head over heels for a pair of Tonian monitors that were truly special, and I immediately knew that I wanted to own them, but now I realize that before I make that commitment I need to hear the duettos, and then figure out how I’m going to pay for them.

Oh, I’ll also say that if I was wealthy and had a larger room, I would love to own a pair of the Lumenwhite speakers I heard there. They sound as beautiful as they look 

 

Triangles are incredibly detailed but never clinical speakers. I've had both their monitor and floor stander models over the years and keep coming back to them. Simply a well made, acoustically gorgeous speaker. They pair well with tube equipment.
