Better Than the Triangle BR03? Triangle Borea BR08 Floorstanding Speaker Review. (Take 2, Ep:20)

The Triangle Borea BR03 stand-mounted loudspeaker has been praised by many reviewers for its combination of high value and high performance. At SoundStage!, we loved it too. But did you know that the BR08 floorstander is every bit as praiseworthy?

Reviewer Diego Estan reviewed both the BR03 and the BR08 for SoundStage! Access, our site for affordable, high-performance hi-fi and home-theater products. In his BR08 review he wrote this: “At $1399/pair, Triangle’s Borea BR08 is a screaming bargain – just like its kid brother, the Borea BR03 minimonitor, at $549/pair. This unassuming French floorstander has the sort of sound that, if heard from behind a curtain, might fool me into believing I was listening to a speaker costing multiple times its price.” You can read the full review here:

In this Take 2 video, Jay Lee re-reviews the Triangl Borea BR08. Did he like it as much as the BR03? Does he think it’s as much of a price/performance leader? Watch this episode to find out more.

Great review. Have the BR03s and was considering the BR08s for another space, but will stick with another pair of the 03s based on your recommendations for space.

Can you compare Triangle Borea BR08 to KLH Kendall Tower?

[hotelpv]

I am trying to decide between Tekton Lore, Wharfdale Denton and Borea 08. Which would you put your money on?

[thivakaransivaraman]

I have br08 hooked up to marantz sr5015 avr. When listening in stereo mode, the bass is lacking. Do you think adding amplifier to my avr will help?

[CharlieBramby]

Hi bud
Could Bro8 sound good for listening to Heavy/Hard/Blues/Alternative rock/Jazz blues/Chill Jazz?
Amp Cambridge Audio cxa81 or Rotel a14 MK2 ? 🙏

[bullpup]

Sounds like you are describing A polite V shape?

[ronysarker]

Do Atoll in200 signeture good match with Triangle Borea BR08?

[timvonr]

Did you actually reviewed the Dali behind you. Haven’t seen the video and would love to, because I love them a lot

[Jpanic]

Great review! Would you say this is would be a good deal for $800/pair? And pairs will with the IOTAVX SA3 only?

[sashac]

Another great review!! One question, you mentioned these should be placed in a mid to large sized room, what do you think is the tipping point in size of the room between these and the BRO3? ( I'm torn between the two)

Thats funny cause i was still hesistating between a pair of Triangle BR08 & a pair of Tekton Lore... style hesitating my heart would lean for the french speaker n my fantasy more for the original design, non hyper commercial trend of the human size company, of Tekton. If any one has a killer reason that'd help me pick one of these 2 pairs of speaker, i would say "merci beaucoup!"

Hey, how will you rate them for Home Cinema ? I've seen many reviews saying they are great for music listening, but no one about HT (movies/games) content.Thank you.

[ronedwards]

So called Audiophiles have no clue what they are talking about in most cases. They slam paper cone drivers. Why? Because they are clueless. Falling for exotic flax, carbon blah blah. Did you know the most expensive reference drivers used to judge all other speakers by use paper?
I have watched all these reviewers comment on these and the Elac BR62, Klipsch RP-600M and you will find some of the reviews state the exact opposite on the characteristics of these models.
One thing to note. Everyone hears differently. Some may actually have hearing loss at certain frequencies and not even know it. These sound like a good contender.

[carmelovillena]

hey soulsik! is the hegel h80 can drive the bro8 with authority?

[joeygonzo]

I'm really tempted to buy a slightly used pair for $600 for the pair locally. Still have the boxes too.

[randalllawkin]

Enough said Lores again. Can you guys review the Aperion Novus speakers?

[mariobross]

Hello l just bought this speakers few days ago for my amplifier denon pma800ne. The question is if my amp will be good enough for this speakers or should l buy something else? Please advise thanks

[HatHudders]

Does the Wellsenton R8 power it? enough, I have the amp ordered and I was thinking these speakers. I have a medium to large room!
