Product Brochure
The Triton Two+ Tower is a remarkable, award-winning
high-performance loudspeaker with a built-in powered
subwoofer. It is designed for superb performance in both
high quality two channel stereo systems as well as in multi-
channel home theater and music systems when paired
with any of our perfectly matched center channels and
surrounds. Its sleek, elegantly curved and tapered design is
important from both a styling and a performance perspective.
It has a gorgeous piano black nish and its compelling cutting-
edge silhouette speaks for itself. Additionally, the very narrow
front bae contributes signicantly to the Triton Two+’s
exceptional 3D imaging capability.
Cutting-edge technology is synergistically combined to
deliver the extraordinary sound quality of the Tritons, which
can be a revelation. Their dynamic, eortless, you-are-
there clarity will almost literally put the live performance
or action right into your home, or conversely, put you
into the concert hall or the live action on the screen. The
built-in powered subwoofer section of the Triton Two+
incorporates a fully-balanced GoldenEar designed 1200-
Watt DSP controlled digital amp. It drives two front-mounted
quadratic 5˝ x 9˝ long-throw subwoofer bass drivers
which are coupled to two side-mounted quadratic 7" x
10"planar infrasonic radiators. The amp has a Programmable
Logic Device (PLD) based state machine with a nearly
instantaneous 278nS update time to perfectly manage
a myriad of functions including soft-clipping, DC oset
control, output-stage anti-saturation protection and discrete
multi-band limiting. Intrinsic THD is extremely low so very
little negative feedback is required thus ensuring optimum
transient performance.
“I was struck with how well integrated the sound was
from top to bottom … with some whomping bass.”
– Roger Kanno, SoundStage! on the Triton Two+
There are two 4.5" GoldenEar-designed cast-basket high-
denition bass/midrange drivers which are arrayed in a
D’Appolito conguration around the tweeter. The drivers
incorporate a unique Multi-Vaned Phase Plug (MVPP
™
) as well
as a proprietary computer optimized cone topology which
helps them to achieve smooth linear response extending
beyond 20 kHz. Even though they are crossed over at 3.5 kHz,
the extended bandwidth and smooth resonant-free response
well beyond their crossover point helps them to achieve
near ideal performance in the range in which they are
utilized. The extraordinary high frequency driver is a
proprietary High Velocity Folded Ribbon (HVFR
™
) design.
The tweeter diaphragm is a high temperature lm, which is
folded like an accordion and positioned within an intense
neodymium magnetic eld. Unlike more conventional dome or
ribbon tweeters which push the air, the HVFR develops higher
pressure and velocity by squeezing the air out between
the pleats of the diaphragm. The result is better impedance
matching to the air in the room with greater control,
smoother more extended response and dramatically
improved dynamic range.
The advantages of building the subwoofers into the Tritons
are many. First, of course, this eliminates the need for
additional bulky subwoofer boxes in the room. But more
important are the performance advantages. First, by
engineering the subwoofer as an integral part to the speaker,
we get far superior integration and blending than can be
achieved with separate subwoofers, even when using two. The
two subwoofers in a pair of Tritons couple better to the air in the
room, helping to better deal with the room’s eigenmodes and
smooth out response. Of course, the dual subwoofers are also
intrinsically more powerful and couple together synergistically
for more truly exceptional bass. Hookup is as simple as just
speaker wire, and there is a separate LFE input if desired.
Like the Two+, the Triton Three+ incorporates the built-in
powered subwoofer technology rst pioneered by GoldenEar
principals Sandy Gross and Don Givogue. In this case, there is an
integral 800-Watt digital/DSP controlled power amp driving an
active front-mounted long-throw 5" x 9" quadratic subwoofer
driver. This is coupled to two opposing, inertially balanced
6.75" x 8" quadratic planar infrasonic passive radiators which
are located on the sides, near the oor, in order to take full
advantage of boundary coupling. There is one of the same 4.5˝
high-denition cast basket MVPP
™
drivers as used in the Two,
along with the same GoldenEar signature High Velocity Folded
Ribbon (HVFR
™
) tweeter.
Performance-wise, the Triton Three+ delivers the same boxless
three-dimensional imaging as the Triton Two+, which reviewers
have hailed as “mystical,” “magical” — and, best summed up by
the dramatic reviewer’s rave,“had us believing that the entire
surface of the front wall was covered with speakers.” Likewise,
the powerful, deep subwoofer bass blends perfectly with
the silky smooth, utterly transparent midrange and high
frequencies, putting many dramatically more expensive
speakers to shame.
