If you’re thinking that ‘Triangle’ is a strange choice of name for a company making rectangular boxes, that’s because the French hi-fi brand’s debut model back in 1980 was a tower with a distinctive triangular upper enclosure — or a square-based pyramidal frustum if you want to be entirely geometrically accurate, but where’s the brand name in that?
Triangle’s Borea range is its entry-level offering, yet is wide in what it offers, with two standmounts, a centre-channel speaker, Atmos-enabled modules and three floorstanders in the range, of which these Borea BR08 are the middle of the three. Clearly floorstanders either side of $2k (these are $2250) face a tough and crowded market with no, but also by the combined editors of EISA selecting the full Borea range as its Best Buy Home Theatre Speaker System. As this magazine votes into those EISA awards as one of Australia’s official EISA members, you now know to expect more than just a few superlatives across the pages of this Borea BR08 review.
