They seem to be no love for these speakers here...

rkujan, as you and talley have seemingly happened upon a less than desirable in-store setup, I would add - especially if you're serious about a GET product - to ensure that the sub-woofer bass setting (knob on back of speaker) is set to 12 o'clock and then make subtle adjustments from there. To high or low a setting can drastically change the overall sound. 

By the way, there is a 3+ model you may want to check out.

I bought the Triton 2's in November of 2015, I got them for $2798 the salesman said that's the best they can do and that's a discount store! So I layed down my hard earned money and brought them home after I went to get my truck,as they are very big with the boxes.

Well I'm very glad that I pulled the trigger on these, I love the sound of them with any kind of music I feel the urge to play. I'm trying to save for a pair of Triton 1's because I for one would rather have a glorious sound over good looks! So maybe next year I will be able to get my "final pair" of speakers till the day I die which I hope is a long long long time from now.

Best of luck with them craftsman2009. As an fyi (although you probably already know), GET has its own forum at the goldenear.com site. Numerous happy audiophiles (customers) over there including myself who can share the good vibes that comes with ownership. As you have already found out, the exceptional value of the Triton line is basically one the most compelling reasons to buy into the brand. 
A big thanks to the contributors to this thread! I'm totally jazzed about bringing the T1s into my room, and never so confident that I don't need to spend stupid money (Spendor, or - turn and cough Revel/Wilson used) to get a speaker that can bring a smile with a broad mix of tastes. I appreciate those putting in room sizes as it helped addressing one of my biggest concerns!
Compared to what?

I think it would help a great deal if folks would include a brief description of what you listen to at home or at the very least what speakers you own. 

Wanabe(you are now), if in your travels you listen to some nicely reproduced music through another system and you return home and find yourself confirming that your speakers do the highs and lows but you're not really listening to the music then...it's my experience that speakers are exactly where to spend the right money on the right speaker.

I say this as a warning because I climbed on this very merry-go-round with another brand and needlessly went through amps, preamps, etc. My only suggestion is to begin by listening to speakers by manufactures who've been around for years and pay close attention to how you're listening to the music not the speakers.  

In the June issue of Stereophile the designer, Sandy Gross, discusses were the monetary priorities went in this design and admits to needing "a reference beyond his own products." Mr. Gross' track record is real good so I'm guessing you'll do well.
