Goldenear Triton 1 vs Goldenear reference speakers.


Has anyone heard the new Goldenear Reference speakers? Can you compare them to the Triton 1's?

As of this writing, shipment to US dealers is from KY warehouse in mid July
UPDATE

As of this writing, I have reason to believe:

"First containers are on schedule and due in our warehouse mid to late next week!!"
UPDATE

I'm told Golden Ear is shipping the Triton Reference to dealers today!

I guess I'm slightly more fortunate in that my dealer is slated to receive them Monday 7/10. I have verified that to the extent it is verifiable with Golden Ear and perhaps more importantly at this point, fedex tracking. I remain hopeful to have them the evening of 7/10.

Not sure how your speakers to your particular dealer are being shipped, but from what I understand GET only ships via fedex or ADL. Either way you can get a tracking number. :)

And while the end of receiving our long awaited speakers is near, the beginning of what I anticipate will be years of enjoyment is beginning!
Nobody get their reference's yet?


Hello Everyone! Yes, I have received, setup, and am in process of listening to them! :)

Suffice it to say they can be thought of as the Triton One on steroids! All is "well". Yes, I shall post a review. Please bear with me as it has been a long past few days. Also, I have recently talked to Sandy Gross of Golden Ear and out of courtesy I would like to submit my review to him first. My review is already 3000 words and climbing, so at some point I need to give it a rest. Sandy suggests to forgo posting/writing any review until the speakers are "broken-in", citing that professional reviewers do the same. I think something of a compromise in that respect is in order, especially because my review is primarily subjective (i.e. without real measurement instrumentation, etc.).

Thank you for your patience. Here is an updated photo of my gear firing on all cylinders. Triton Reference and recently acquired Oppo UDP-205.
