Just Ordered New Speakers

I just put the order in for a pair of Golden Ear Triton Reference Speakers. I was able to get the first production run which should be shipping sometime in May. They will replace my Triton 1 speakers which will be moved upstairs to my secondary system. Presently I have Triton 2 in my secondary system, so those will go on the market once my new speakers come in. I bought these without hearing them, but since I already own both the 1 and 2, I am positive I will love them. They all have the GE house sound which I like very much.

Now the long wait and anticipation begins

I've had a pair of Triton 7s for about a year and a half now and have been very pleased. (The 7 was selected due to size, not price.)

They replaced a set of classic Spendor SP1/2Es which I dearly loved, but were finally ordered out of the room due to their 1970s boxiness. The Tritons have a very good midrange with acoustic instruments and the tweeter is superb. The Spendors had a magical quality with well recorded voice and the Tritons are almost as good -- just a tad shy. However, the Tritons win the bass contest, but without being unnaturally overwhelming. 

I also have a set of the small Aon 2s in an office system. In their own way, they are perhaps even more surprising than the Triton line. They are outstanding for the money.
