Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result?
Just to share my experience:  in my large L-shaped room, my GoldenEar Triton 7's were just not providing the depth/weight of sound I wanted.  After doing a lot of research on upgrading the T7's and not coming to any conclusions, a pair of discount... 
Anyone compared GoldenEar Triton 7 with Triton Reference?
Hello all -- I thought I’d provide an update for anyone who is interested:Since I started this thread, I’d been researching various different speakers as an upgrade to my Triton 7’s, with many possible ideas coming from suggestions on this thread ...

@secretguy — Thanks for the information.  It seems like most people with Goldenear Tritons don’t find the sweet spot constricted, although of course some do, as mentioned on this thread.  I myself haven’t felt that issue with the 7s — just looking...

@ieales -- thanks for your input. BTW, in case it’s of interest to you, I just found a video where the Spatial Audio designer explains things in a way that was more understandable to me than what’s on the Spatial website: https://www.youtube.com/w...

@ieales Thanks for your comments about Nola. I don’t have the knowledge like you do to identify spurious claims/jargon, but it did seem even to me that there was little technical information/measurements on that website to back up the statements m... 
Revel F228BE
@lnitm  Many thanks for the positioning information —extremely helpful, and good to know that 16” to front wall is workable.   I finally managed to audition them today and was able to experiment a little with positioning, and also felt they sounde... 
Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9
@prof  -- thanks for the additional info on your audition of the Revels -- much appreciated. 
Revel F228BE
I'm very interested in the Revel F228Be's, but haven't had a chance to listen to them yet (four hours' driving to get to/from nearest dealer). But I have quite constrained placement options in my room, so if I were to purchase them, I don't t... 
Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9
@prof I've read with interest your detailed impressions of the various speakers you auditioned, in the thread you started.   Wrt Revels, my take on what you wrote is that you found them accurate, but clinically competent, not organic, not engaging... 
Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9
@freesole  Thanks for the response.  Yes, I've already been seeing how subjective this is -- the one high-end speaker I've auditioned so far just didn't sound good to me, even though many seem to really love it, and it is very well reviewed.  Than...

@jackd -- BTW, if I understood correctly, you at one time owned Nola KOs?  If so, could you say a little about your reasons for transitioning to Spatial M3TM, and about how you feel the two compare? -- thanks! 
Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9
@freesole, Interesting thread!  I'm in a similar situation to yours (looking for rich, large soundstage, non-fatiguing but detailed sound, that fills a large open-plan room that includes living-dining-kitchen, looking at up to about $10K) -- so yo...

@jackd Thanks!  Of those, only the Spendor was on my list.  Will look into those, thanks for the suggestions.  
Anyone compared GoldenEar Triton 7 with Triton Reference?
@jackd i hope to to be able to go up to $10K.  Color preference probably black, just because this will need to look neutral (it goes in the main living area).  I do have a list of speaker options that I’ve been researching, which has a lot of over... 
Anyone compared GoldenEar Triton 7 with Triton Reference?
@jackd and @winefix, Many thanks for all your input on the Spatial M3TM.  I actually spoke with Clayton today and he was incredibly gracious and helpful.  But unfortunately, after measuring my constrained positioning/space again, I just don’t thin...
