> 3 dayBest speakers I have tried so far. I replaced my B&W 607 for these in the living room and I have no regrets. I even prefer them to the KEF R3 because of their better high-end clarity. At first the low-end wasnt much to write home about but it develops over time. They definitely have a break in period before they sound their best, so make sure you dont return them right away if you think they are lacking. Id say these compete with the Klipsch RP600M MK2 for a much cheaper price.

> 3 dayEvaluated Triangle BR03’s against KEF Q150’s, used ELAC Uni-fi slim 5. Each speaker had its strengths and weaknesses - to me, the BR03’s had the most balanced and well-rounded sound. Since I was pairing the speakers with an inexpensive class D, integrated amp, I was concerned that the Aiyima T9 could not drive the ELAC. The Triangles are simple to drive and sounded surprisingly transparent and clear without the sharpness, treble forwardness of other speakers. Additionally, they make even poor recordings sound compelling. Highly recommend.

> 3 dayDecent fidelity for the size. I am unable to place them 20 from the back wall as I think was recommended (despite the fact that the bass ports are in the front of the speakers). Mine are only about 10 from the back wall. In my opinion, the bass is a bit prominent (but muffled) for accuracy (comparing to my Sony MDR-V6 headphones, which are said to be VERY accurate). The treble seems good. Piano sounds excellent on these speakers. Overall, I am pleased, considering the small size and placement in my small area. Not surprisingly, they sound a bit better with the grill removed. I will add that break-in seemed to improve things only a bit.

Greater than one weekAfter reading countless reviews and watching y/tube videos praising these speakers I bought these from adorama over b/friday. They sound good but nowhere as good as I was led to believe. They image fairly well and Im sure most people will find them to be adequate, but they just didnt do it for me. I found them lacking in weight in their sound signature and sounding hallow. I have the Klipsch RP600Ms and the Studio 530s and after A/Bing both, preferred them both over the BRO3s. In another room I have the Polk RTIA3 and though the BRO3s offer a pleasing sounding high end, in the end the lack of bass response made me gravitate toward the Polks. So maybe Z was right after all. Theres something not quite right about these speakers. Either a defect or something that only some people experience because it seems a majority of folks seem to love the BRO3s. In my case, I was happy to bear the cost of return shipping to send these back. For me to keep them, they would have to be discernibly better than what I have...and they were not.

> 3 dayI bought these BR03s to replace a pair of speakers I recently purchased, but didnt like. Im not going to name the brand or model. They werent horrible, they just werent right for me. To avoid purchasing another pair of disappointing speakers, I read many more reviews this time. Regardless of the source, these Triangles were getting rave reviews. So I took a chance and ordered them. I am blown away by how good these speakers sound. The detail is so satisfying. The bass response is deep and tight - I presume this is the result of the dual bass ports located at the front of the speaker, not at the rear. Theyre efficient too. I have them paired with a modest 40 watts per channel amp. I have no idea how far you can turn these up, because I stopped when the volume became uncomfortably loud. I give these speakers top marks in every category. If youre like me, trying to get the very best sound possible - on a budget - youll get way more then youre paying for with these BR03s.

Greater than one weekI recently purchased a set of Klipsch 600Ms to replace a set of Bose 301 Series 4s, and thought they were outstanding but not quite the full sound I was looking for, especially in the mid-range, where many vocals sounded muddy. So I continued searching; once I heard these Triangle Borea BR 03, I knew they were what I need for a small room (16 x 22) setup. While not as full in the bass as the Klipsch set, theres a sufficient amount for me, since most of my listening is classical, jazz, some vocals and a smattering of rock. If I want more bass, I just switch on the sub-woofer, but I havent really felt the need to use it much. The break-in time for the Triangles was fairly short, less than a day, a sharp contrast to the month it took for the Klipsch to sound their best. The mid-range sounds are full, the bass is certainly there, and the highs are bright (a down-turn on the treble control settles that). Im really more than just satisfied with the BR 03s, since the sound is fuller than what I grew used to over the years. At $400, they were a bargain!

> 3 dayComparada con las bocinas que usamos los pobres, esta es simplemente una de las mejores, mejor que Polk Audio, mejor que Boston Acoustic, mejor que otras marcas que he utilizado en pareja de bocinas de estantes por debajo de los 800 dólares. Mi parecer sobre el mercado de bocinas sobre el precio de los 1000 dólares, es que tienen muy poco que aportar, aparte del estatus de tener algo caro que otros no pueden tener. Es como la comparación entre un Toyota Camry y un Mercedes Benz, simplemente el estatus de quien lo usa, pero la usabilidad diaria para transporte de un ser humano común, ambos son iguales. La calidad del sonido de estas bocinas es genial, muy detallado y los bajos hay que decir que son potentes y ajustados, ayudados por la versatilidad de que tienen el puerto de refuerzo de bajos por delante y lo tienen doble. La mayoría de la gente de este post que habla tan bien de este par de bocinas, no puede estar equivocada, valen cada centavo por ellas.

Greater than one weekLongtime audio devotee . For the money these speakers sound exceptional. I have Rogers studio 1s in a reference system and while these do not match the Rogers, they do provide great sound with clear highs and good base response. Great buy at this price.
