I used to be a triangle dealer and I was very impressed with the product line. They are so easy on the ears, I found myself that they didn't fatigue my ears like the klipsch which I also sold when I worked at a different shop.
I learn from You every time I listen to your Reviews....Thank You! You Are Making a Difference!!!
Excellent review. Especially appreciate the comparison at the end.
I love the intro. Beautiful techniques. I enjoyed this review. Thank you for your effort
I will always be grateful to Sean for this review, it led me to these amazing speakers and since the day I received them my relation with music listening has changed. Thank you!
Damn.
Hello, I want to ask you which components do you use for BR03? I mean what amplifier, subwoofer and other ... Thank You...
The comparisons at the end are the best parts imo...good review as always
Yeah. They add context.
Excellent review!!! The fact that you compared to a well established bookshelf gives me some reference!!! I would really like to listen to these speakers!!! Thanks for not only introducing them but also providing an exceptional review!!! ☮️🖖🏽
I'm still using my B&W Matrix 1 Series 2 speakers and not planning to replace them.
I really love how they sound.
Thanks for this vid, btw. Keep'em coming, sir!
Great review.....you read my mind on the comparison at the end. You’re good! ✨
Wow, that was a great review, informative, educational, and engaging. Thanks as always.
I bought the Br02 for my bedroom. it is perfect. My god these speakers are amazing. No need for a sub. Perfect ! The sound is so relax, smooth and natural compared to the Elac debut 2 (I still love them, with my DIY crossover). It's so funny that i have to learn about a french product from an american :). I'm gonna pay more attention to the local scene. Thanks Sean !
I'll upgrade the crossover on them too. Just to see the gain :) Being an audiophile is restless
hello .. i just purchased these and could you tell me how to find new crossovers ..link? any info is good
You certainly don't disappoint Sean. Another great review. U DA MAN lol.
So I just recieved my pair. I couldn't resist after this video. They are stunning. I mean, right out of the box they sound really, really good. If someone is getting into this hobby, there's no reason to go beyond these Bro3's. For the price, the sound is nothing short of stunning.
Congrats Damion! Glad you like them!
@Damion - thanks for sharing ! How is the off-axis performance of Bro3s? Yesterday, I went to a local audio store where they had a different speaker playing - those were placed may be 8 ft apart and it sounded as if the voice was coming right from the center ! I was told those speakers were phase & time aligned... just curious, do Bro3s have a similar sound?
@@simplyns953 I also have them about 8ft apart. The Bro's really sound nice. They are still breaking in, but it's very hard to believe they only cost $550. They are blowing away my $2500 Zu's right now. Vocals and instruments sound great coming out of these. I'm trying to play different types of music to see if there's one place they fall down, and just haven't found one yet.
@Damion - Wow ! thank you so much for your response!
@@simplyns953 hey bro I was interested what speakers did you listen to it I gave you that Center image
TBH, I'm more excited about these speakers than I was about the Buchardt S400's. Good stuff. Meanwhile, I need to address the following: (1) If you're in the US and would like to buy them, go here: www.adorama.com/l/Miscellaneous/Triangle~New-Products-at-Adorama . No, I'm not commissioned. Next, (2) I have no idea how any of the other speakers within the Borea range perform. For all I know, the BR03's could be the sweet spot within the lineup. I'll have to reserve commentary on those products until I'm able to get my ears on em'.
The Borea BR08's got a very good review from Steve Guttenberg. That's what first got me interested in the BR03's, a better fit for my space.
@@orelove - Steve and I briefly riffed about them on the phone. He genuinely liked them. I wouldn't be surprised of the BR03's are the better all-arounders, but I'll have to reserve that judgement until I spend time with the 08's. :)
Hi really enjoy your reviews.
Could you include some objective measurements with these reviews so that I can have a fair idea of how it can perform vis a vis your subjective opinion.......so that I can also have a fair idea whether I can tally with mine.
Thanks.
@@drnabakishor - Thanks! I'm afraid objective measured data will not be a part of Zero Fidelity at any point in the near future. Should I one day decide to turn this into a business, then I'll be more motivated to explore the merits of providing this kind of information. Until then, it will just be a guy with a ballcap and a lot of things to say about hifi.
Really nice review with a brief comparison to the klipsch. But how does this fare against the pair of Polk LSiM703 that is on sale for $450? I'm curious to know if the BR03 can beat the Polks (which are 3 way) in both HT and music usage.
Oh my goodness! I got a better cardio workout from my chair just watching this video, than being on my stationary bike for 30 minutes. JEESH, most energetic review I have ever seen!
Man, I hear you. I felt tired for him after watching the review
Sean, last time I saw you that enthusiastic about a speaker was the Tekton double impact and I bought them. I have been extremely happy with them ever since in my living room. I was about to purchase the Klipsh 600 for my smaller family room. Now I will pull the pin on those Triangle for my family room and I’m pretty sure I won’t be disappointed based on your very trusted opinion. Thank you bro 👊🏻
Cheers Eric! Yep, I've only been this enthusiastic about two other products: The Tekton DI's and the Buchardt S400's. To be fair, I was also really into the Iotavx gear as well. Anyhoo - congrats on the BR03's! I hope you and the fam really enjoy them!
I heard these at the Toronto Audio Fest, the very BEST sound there for us small wallet individuals, more importantly they are just mind blowing brilliant, spectacular really special. Star Electronics =Triangle had an event the following Saturday where I purchased them. At the event, there were some hard core audiophiles just purchasing without hesitation, dive in guys these really are special. Great review Shawn, I can see the enjoyment on your face hahahah
Yeah, I heard the sound was bangin' up in Toronto. Thanks for sharing!
I have the Triangle Esprit Titus EZ rubbish name but brilliant speakers - love 'em.
If anyone has any problem figuring out what your saying, they’re just slow! You are getting it all out there, you are giving a comparison that helps with relative speakers from other makers. I don’t know Sean! You can’t reach some people, but you are doing a great job!😊👍🏻🤘
Thanks Mark. Will be taking a hiatus soon enough! :D
That's what a good reviewer does, he enables people to get the sound in their heads :) Slightly forward, quite refine treble, palpable midrange, good bass, needs 2-3 ft space. I bought it! Actually I bought it before the review. Staying up 4am, that's an addictive speaker! I would be surprised if I don't like it. Thanks Sean!
Thanks! I'm sure you'll love em'.
Yeah, thank YOU! I was so impatient, I cant wait till Mar 2020, it would have saved me singapore $350. I hope it won't need too much space to perform well. Made a wrong assumption... front ported.
I just picked up a pair of these today, thanks to your review it made it a lot easier to decide between these and the RP600M. Awesome review.
Hi. Do tou still have triangle? Is any good in your opinion?
You are absolutely correct with these speakers. Terrific!
Really great review. I’ve lusted for the gorgeous Deltas that we’re so highly regarded.
I'm very fortunate to find these speakers, driving them with Bluesound Powernode 2i. Warm and detailed sound, even at low volume. Using some inexpensive Pangea stands (filled with Sand). Spotify sounds great!
WOW! Was caffeine consumed prior to this review? WHEW! I was ready for a nap after your rant! THANKS! They look like my Mission speakers, similar concept. CHEERS!
What a wonderful review and bonus campare to the klipsch. Nice!
I have to agree with everything you've said Sean. I've just purchased the compete ez and the sound is something incredible for the price. I was lucky to pick them up for 450€ which is a steal. Pair them up with some higher end gear and they just sound even better. Transparent, detailed, dynamic they work so well with all types of music. I've already forgotten about my elac uni-fi ub5s! Triangle are really onto something here.
Congrats on the EZ's! Wonderful speakers!
@@ZeroFidelity I auditioned both the EZ and BRO3 and for my ears the BRO3 Tweeter is more comfortable and easy to listen then the metallic tweeter of the EZ, The BRO3 Woofer is going more low then the EZ However the build quality and the weight of the EZ is much better in my opinion.
Liked the review. You make it pretty clear, which isn't easy to do. And I like the position you take as an advocate for "affordable" audio. Bravo. And, in particular, I like your final comparison with the Klipsch 600M's -- because I have 2 pair -- that you talked me into -- and I'm very happy with them. Because each pair delivers into a large space, they were the right choice for me. But if I were looking to drive a 16' x 24' x 8' room, these BROs might go to the front of the line. Especially if I was listening from closer than 8'. The Klipsch's are pretty 'in your face' closer than that, but wonderful throughout the rest of the space. Especially at high SPLs.
So help me, a CD from a live session at the Village Vanguard sounds like being there, especially if I add two fingers of Macallan.
The Klipsch's might be in my face, but so are real horns, drums, and a Steinway 9'. Or the entire Cleveland Orchestra ensemble from row four.
I don't know about rock music. Live rock concerts sound like an arena with two semi's of JBL stacks force-feeding a shit ton of DSP.
Watching and listening to BR03 reviews through my BR03's. 👌
Triangle is a hidden gem for sure...
I think alot of people are flipping out over these because, they are sensational for the price. I spent around $480 for mine, and that's a damn great price for the performance that you get from these!
I matched these speakers up with my vintage McIntosh MC 2505 amp. The results are fantastic. I had to find a good budget speaker and man I’m glad I have these now. I had Elac dbr 6.2 for a sec too. Both are seriously great buys. IMO I think br03 was more appropriate with the voicing of my amp so I chose them instead.
These arr my favortie loudspeaker PERIOD. Wow. Just got mine today.
well Sean, you went and did it! Because of this great review I just ordered a pair. I will pair it with my Carver M500t power amp :-)
Great review, love it. Just got my BR03 from akustik-projekt in Austria, waiting it to arrive in the post. :)
Very enthusiastic review. Going on my list.
I think a pair of these are a definite for me. Just love the depth of the cabinet. I really like the tweeter design, and that it has a six inch woofer. They are awesome looking too!
Try them out and let us know what ya think!
I discovered your channel about a week ago and I've been following you ever since then (subscriber). I live in Colorado so I'm unable to audition these, but based on your enthusiastic review I picked up the phone and bought them from a supporting dealer in Brooklyn. Talk about a leap of faith. I look forward to hearing these French beauties sing. Now if I could only find a good recording of Edith Piaf.👍
Sweet! Hope they work out for you!
Robert, how do you like the Bro3?
fantastic review, thank you.
I love to see your enthusiasm, you usually look like the review is killing you...lol! As the holidays approach, I hope that you could put together an end of year buying guide, comprised of your favorite products. Thanks for the review, and keep up the great work!!
Your observation is so spot on. Truth is, these reviews reap my freaking soul! It's nice to do something for a change that doesn't feel like pure work. :) And yeah, I'd like to put together a lil' guide as well. Hopefully I'll get in all the products so I can make it possible.
Thanks for sharimg. Another great budget speakers. Another budget speakers is the new Wharfedale EVO series 2019 uses AMT driver. The Evo 4.1 or 4.2 bookshelf under $1000. Great natural tonality and 3D image from various online reviews.
Sold. Thanks. Just ordered.
Congratulation for your diction, it's close to perfect. You could work for a radio, or record audio books, or things of that sort. I am french but I believe that I understand you better than many of my compatriots. And I am so pleased that for once a french product get such a good review. I often thougt the the french high-end audiophile products are underestimated, o simply ignored. Well done.
I have the bro2 ,they are naturally effortless and smooth sounding speakers 🤯😎
Thanks! I ordered the Borea 08 yesterday.
Sure they will sound Great.
Geez what views ! My turn to watch ! You know I had to pop the hood on these bro3 ! Hell fire they kick Axx ! Thanks Sean
Excellent equipment is available for a pittance compared to when I first got started in the early 70’s if you love audio this is really a special time which I assume will only get better.
Have mine on order form my local dealer. Can't wait!!!
Great review 👍
Great Review! Thanks
Wide sound stage, good bass, and Grado like mids? Sounds like a winner.
Didn't think of it but... yeah... Kinda like a Grado sound, only with smooth top-end and actual imaging. :D
Great video 👍. It's cool seeing someone getting so passionate about the products they are reviewing. By the way, what's your take on Zu Audio Dirty Weekend?
You had me at “ bass is strong” !
Outstanding review shopping for 2 days of speakers as I watch your review 1 pair settle on klipsch s-51 hook up to Yamaha yst60 classic sub. Next triangle b-3s hook to onkyo tx8511 received hope that's a good match thanks.
I usually don’t comment on RUclips videos. I never buy something based on one review, even a rave review. But I have gone ahead and ordered the Bro’ 3s. I like your reviews and the way you do things and the dealer is as impressed with these as you are. I will let you know my thoughts in a few weeks when they arrive and I have spent some time with them. Thanks........I think 😂😂😂
@@pkdude5334
I absolutely love them. I am not an audiophile but I play a couple instruments and sing. So I know good sound when I hear it and these have it. Not super flat like a studio monitor but very true sound with enough extra to make them lively and enjoyable to listen to. No regrets, I enjoy them every time I turn them on.
@@pkdude5334
Good for you, it should be an interesting comparison between these and the Klipsch. Let us know how you like them. I have Elac Deput 2.0 B6.2 in another room and while very good they do not stand up to the Borea BR03
Great review.. I'd love to see a video of what you feel are the best speaker models for different genres.. such as best speakers for Jazz, best speakers for R&B, etc.
Good review! yes you might be right tweakers Paradise, an easy possible upgrade is to stick a floor tile on the top should extend the highs vertical plane possibly overlapping about 2mm over the front baffle, celeb of blue tack about 2 or 3 mm push the tile into it, and with that front baffle could be taken out and the cabinet made from concrete using the speaker cabinet as the inner mould, and some half an inch plywood as the outer mould half an inch sidewalls quarter of an inch on the back thickness of cabinet. Some filling inside the cabinet will be needed the wood from the cabinet could be used top and bottom inside on the side walls use bitumen pads self adhesive used in the car industry quarter of an inch thick each side on the back use natural wool fleece unspun 2 inches thick or rockwool. Ideally box in the tweeter isolated from the cabinet pack it Tight with rockwool if the tweeter is vented I don't think so in this case with the hole in the back of the magnet then don't use rockwool all the way only a third from the back feel the rest of it with alpaca wool, the tighter you fill it to the driver the more pronounced the lower high frequencies will be
Hi Sean, would you also do the "after hype thing" with these? Very much appreciate your fantastic work
Thank you for your time and energy making these videos. Your a great asset to the community. I am going to get a pair of these and currently have a parasound hca-1200, my question is, do you think the iotavx stack would be a better match or would adding a Freya+ to my parasound be “better”
Bold statements about these, I like it! I haven’t really heard anything bad about the Triangle brand yet. I’ll need to keep an eye out for them.
Trust me, everything he says about these triangle speakers are true. You won't be disappointed.
@@jamesdwright i agree bought the bro02 and the iotavx he recommended...wow
Just bought a pair of these in Light Oak, great value
Love the comparison.
Building my first real hifi setup. I just placed the order after many days of reading! So exciting. 🙈🥳 Can't wait to get them.
Next order will probably be the iotavx sa3.
Thanks for all your work and for an awesome channel! 🙏
10 years later ....... 😁😁😁 good luck
@@rustypipe I'm not sure I understand you but thanks mate. :)
@@antonkirkeby3374 what I meant was once this bobby grabs you it won't let you go :-) I've been through all sorts of systems and ended up with all in one unit after 15 years of swapping and upgrading. and one thing I learnt is do not trust online reviews go to the shop and listen or even ask for home demo.
@@rustypipe Thanks for explaining. :)
That's a good point! And your probably right about once you get hook in on this hobby you're stuck. Haha.
Well, I bought the speakers from an online store with 60 days return policy and 3 years warranty. So I should be able to send them back if they dissapoint. Sadly, it's not possible to hear them in a shop in this area..
Great job!!
I've been to the New Music High end innovation exhibition in Brussels. I've listened to Wilson audio Alex, Russell K, Kaya 90, Naim, the best stuff you can find for Hifi and Home Cinema and I must say that a lot of people including me were totally amazed by the quality of the Triangle Borea suite. The combo Borea BR08 with a CXA61 from Cambridge audio was absolutely incredible for the price . I couldn't recommand anything else for someone with a tight budget for Hifi and Home Cinema.
I just wanted to let you know about a test I did with these. I had a cheap Polk audio center channel. I replaced it with one of my Bro3's. WOW! It is an excellent center channel speaker. I mean worlds better than before.
Hi again, bought them on Black Friday and am very pleased with how they sound. Especially for 340€ a pair !
I'm no audiophile, but pretty much everything I've thrown at them (Nightwish, Sia, Ghost, Who, Rammstein, Buckley, Mozart, Barry Lyndon's S/T, harp, classical guitar, you name it...) makes for a very pleasant hearing, very relaxed (except for, say, Rammstein at nearly full blast ;-) ). Note that I don't do "whatever-they-call-R&B-these-days", hip-hop, rap, EDM, etc... so I can't say anything about that.
The amp used is not the best out there (Yamaha CRX-N470D, 2x22W), but still it could drive them to reasonably loud levels (cf. Rammstein, I had to lower the volume after a while due to aching ears, not bad sound) and keeping it subtle for other genres (and, side note, these connected amps are amazing when it comes to sources : most streaming services available, NAS, shared disk on PC, Btooth, Net radio, phone/tablet... Shame it doesn't do OGG but I guess the audience here is more on FLAC)
I just found the sound to be a bit "muddy" perhaps with one classical recording (symphony), with no instruments really standing out, but that could be down to the mix, amp, and I'm not used to listening much to classical anyway. Another one, a violin concerto, was quite OK. Any modern (rock/pop/folk/...) recording sounded great.
One thing that surprised me was indeed the bass level. Given the genres I listen to the most, I was expecting to start hunting for a subwoofer very soon but honestly there is no need at all unless you are a Bose/Beats-addict. There's PLENTY of bass, and again this is with a rather puny amp. I believe that's what Sean meant with "not neutral". Some who like a crisp/thinner sound might indeed find it a bit excessive, but I've listened to Bose before and the bro's are far more neutral to that regard. And one can usually lower the bass level/play with the EQ on most amps.
I won't repeat what Sean says about the rest (focus, treble, mid-range, ...), it's just like he says.
One comment, Sean, you complain about the naming of these speakers and doesn't say a thing about the Harbeth "P3ESR" ? Seriously ? What is this pro-British bias I sense ;-)
Thanks for the review, it was there when there weren't many out there on these speakers (still the case today) and as far as I'm concerned they are everything you describe, without the need for frequency response or distortion graphs and other funnies. Good job. See you in 25 years when I'll refresh my system again.
Egerly waitig to try it, as I go from Paganini to Rammstein, with Malmsteen, Vai, Satriani and Pink Floyd (to name a few - ahhh, Sepultura [Cavalera version] as well) in between :)
>Note that I don't do "whatever-they-call-R&B-these-days", hip-hop, rap, EDM, etc... so I can't say anything about that.
Some EDM artists are very much into hi fidelity audio and have exceptional recordings. Check out anything by Nicolas Jaar or his side project Against All Logic. Some trance artists such as Carbon Based Lifeforms, Shpongle, and Eat Static also have amazing production quality.
"great for small to medium sized rooms" but also 3ft away from the wall, they're going to be sitting on the coffee table 😂
Exactly!
Ok, we get it, you live in a walk-in closet.
IKR? How many room dimensions that qualify as "small" have 3 ft. to spare from the wall, and/or without the speakers losing the appropriate spacing needed from each other? With the depth of these cabinets, one foot is going to be a stretch. Maybe he should have included a review of them stacked together on a single floor stand in an X-Y pattern in the front center of the room, either severe toe-in or toe-out; stereo imaging by reflection and refraction only. 😒
@@fisherman9435what does front ported mean
And it looks nice😍 Reminds me of a Voxativ speaker 😍
Had to google that one. :)
Voxativ-German build that are HIGHLY overpriced. Yes, they’re built well but have ZERO bottom. I’ve had the Hagen’s in my home. Mids great! Highs-sucked Low end- non existent. Voxitiv owner is a fucking weirdo. You can take that to the bank.
Hey Sean! I know this is an ‘ancient’ video, but I’ll give you a fresh comment: I recently acquired a pair of these secondhand in new condition for a crazy price, and I can’t believe how enjoyable they are (and I’ve had several speakers lately, some considerably more expensive). Great tone, which is very important to me, I’m guessing at least partially due to the paper-based cone drivers, which I prefer. Anyway, thanks for the video!
Thanks so much for this great review. I was wondering if there are any under 400 euros amplifiers you recommend for these speakers? Or even vintage?
Great review, have you heard the Adam Audio T5V? If so what are your thoughts? I want to make a purchase this month. Hoping for a good sale price on the Borea's or the Adams. Thanks! :)
Just wanted to thank you for all the artist recommendations I've gathered through your video descriptions (intro music) 😁 It's the first thing I check before watching your gear reviews. Favorite finds have been Velvet Moon and Cody Francis. Thanks!
That's awesome! Enjoy the music!
Same here! That's a significant part of the review process - the software and hardware should go together. My view of music out there is constantly expanding with the gear out there to enjoy it.
Great review. I love that you're an audiophile who appreciates speakers that the average person can afford while at the same time you appreciate a large variety of price points. I'm Canadian - are these speakers available to us?
I just bought Bro8 in Edmonton, so yes there are Canadian dealers with these
Great Review! Do you think these would match well with a 50w per Channel Hybrid Tube Amp ? (Two EL34's per side)
........Thanks!
Sean, might I ask if you'd consider reviewing both the Fyne Audio F301 | F500 models?, as I'd like you see your take on them.
Other then that, I'm glad to see you're still around, and continuing to serve and educate many of us quite well........, to which I'm very very grateful.
These have replaced my rp600m (piano black as beautiful as they were) which replaced my rp500m (which I preferred to the 600’s). These aren’t gonna be replaced by any thing for the foreseeable future. Love them. Got the light oak version and there as pretty as the pb 600’s.
Just curous what made you switch? Since triange and klipsch sound are quite different.
You're right, it's a great time to be an audio enthusiast. One can assemble a very good system for a relatively modest amount of money. I've been at it long enough to know this wasn't always the case. I've helped my sister, who recently decided to get into high fidelity, put together a system for less than a thousand bucks and she has everything but a turntable. It's not up to my standard but it sounds pretty good. Ask an aside, I'm also really impressed with modern wraps. When you can't tell if it's real wood veneer or not I think it shows they are definitely doing it right. And that's starting to be the norm. Anyway, those Triangle's do look beautiful and I have no doubt they sound every bit a nice as you say. I'm partial to French speakers anyway.
There are so many great options out there that it almost makes me mad. I had to spend a lot of money back in the day to get sound that isn't nearly as good (or as accessible and easy) as it today. As you note, there's still plenty of merit to pricier gear, as it will still outperform the less expensive stuff most of the time. However, that gap is beginning to narrow quite rapidly.
It really is. No question about it.
Hi Sean. I’m really interested in buying a pair of these and this is a great review. I listen to a lot of acoustic guitar based music. How would these BRO3s handle that please? I don’t listen at very high volume, so how does the BRO3 handle lower volumes? Thinking of pairing them with maybe an Audiolab 6000a
Hi Sean, I want to upgrade from the Polk Audio T50 floor standing speaker. I am looking for two speakers that sound balanced with not too bright highs, with full mids and clear rounded bass. Sounds like these are much better sounding but will they sound as full as a floor standing speaker like the T50? Thank you for your time.
I love your reviews. There is so much choice. I am almost lost. What I am looking for is the best budget book shelf speaker in truest sense. They will have to fit in a book shelf and hence there won't be any significant distance from the wall. Music taste ranges from jazz to sometimes electronic music. I am certainly more interested in the highs than a massiv bass. thanks for all your thoughts.
Sean the Bro 3 vs PSB T20 floorstands with my Iotavx set, what do you think? Do not like sound in my face but worried PSB may be too laid back and Triangle too forward
Hey man! I've been enjoying your reviews recently. I noticed, however, that you don't seem to have Edifier reviews. Is there any reason behind this? I've got two pairs and they're both fantastic!
I agree the sound projection is awesome on the speakers , and bass is more fun than my TOtems rainmaker . However i prefer my Totem details and sparkle in the higher end, so i switch depending on the content. For exemple I prefer watching some animes on the Bros cause of the ambiance they create and voices sound a lot different. Sure want to buy the S400 Buchardt too one day :)
Hi excellent review as always, I am in big confused about the triangle or elac reference. Bookshelf or florestand, which will better with image?
Hey Sean, enjoy your reviews very much and value your opinion. I’m sure the Bro’s are everything you and the other reviewers say they are and I almost pulled the trigger and got these, but the overall look and presentation in the numerous reviews on RUclips doesn’t exactly shout quality build to me. Went with the RP-600
Triangle is so underrated,..... i have a pair Triangle Esprit Antal EZ and for me, they are the best Speakers Update to 7000€ / Pair.
I listen to them in a showroom. Had to run out of the room before breaking down in an emotional sobbing heap.
Triangle seems to have IT.
What are the speaker stands that you use in all of your bookshelf speaker reviews?
What do you think about the BR03 vs the Polk LSiM703, assuming you can get them for the same price?
Hi everyone! Hey Sean, what DAC are you pairing with iotavx and the Bro3s? Do you have a preference for speaker cables with this setup?
great looking speaker
Hey Sean- Safe to say, “BROMANCE”
I'm curious how these are different than Triangle Esprit Comete EZ.
Would be great if you'd make a review on those as well!
Keep up the good work.
Your description of the smooth but detailed treble and forward midrange sounds like the loudspeaker equivalent of Sennheiser HD650 headphones. Sounds very interesting.
These seem very appealing i've had the the dbr62 , 3020i and Psb Alpha p5....right now im test driving the Q Acoustics 3030i i rather like these the most out of the bunch...might have to get around to the Bro 03 before i move up in price...
Hi Sean, How do you think the Br03 works with the newer Denon amps and player? For instance the Denon you have reviewed?
Nice looking speaker for sure.
I don't have a great amp but I got these and a pair of Martin Logan 35 xti and these blew me away at nearfield. I probably needed a better amp then my Yamaha WXA-50 to do the ML justice,but wow for the price I am impressed. Now I just need a good compact amp with subout for these to sit at my desk as I need to move the Yamaha back to the TV.
Just picked these up and paired them with a Yamaha Rx v385 receiver, and a JBL stage 100P and they sound insane!
Oh boy, now I need to get one of these to try.
Thomas & Stereo get the Comete EZ same woofer but the real Triangle tweeter
Thomas & Stereo lol You r funny
Stick with the Klipsch RP-600M’s
Hook line and sinker:)
It's front ported and at least a 6in midbass in a pair of passive bookshelf speakers for under 700usd. So it's a win for me.
