TRIANGLE BOREA BR03
Despite its decidedly un-French-sounding name, Triangle is a completely French loudspeaker manufacturer that builds its speakers entirely in that country, including building its own drivers (of which its famous horn-loaded tweeter, with its distinctive gold-coloured phase plug as used on the company’s top-line Magellan, is the best-known).
Triangle was founded by Renaud De Vergnette in 1980 in the town of Soissons, around 100km north-east of Paris, and has remained there ever since. The town is one of the most ancient in France and in 1429 was famously liberated during the Hundred Years War by French troops under the command of Joan of Arc.
(And in fact, of course, the word triangle is spelled the same in both French and English. It also has exactly the same meaning: a two-dimensional shape with three sides and therefore three (tri) angles. However the French pronunciation is ‘tree-on-gleh’. The name of the company derives from the fact that De Vegnette’s first speaker, the Model 1180, had an almost triangular front baffle.)
