Hi-Fi Floorstanding Speaker – Borea BR08

The floor standing BR08, inspired by the iconic Antal speaker, was the reference model throughout the design of the Borea range. Elegant three-way floor standing with 4 transducers, it is one of the most appreciated high-fidelity models.

It incorporates a new 25mm EFS silk dome tweeter; a new 16cm midrange with a brand-new profile, based on the research on the natural cellulose paper used before in the Esprit Ez; and two new 16cm bass drivers in fiberglass.

Its three-way configuration diffuses all frequencies with no interference between the transducers, producing precise voices and instruments.

This floorstanding speaker will fit perfectly in rooms ranging from 20 to 40m2.

Range Technologies

Borea loudspeakers benefit from research and innovations from the Esprit Ez range for uncompromising sound reproduction.

EFS tweeter, natural-cellulose made medium or DVAS* system, each element has been designed for uncompromising sound reproduction.

Music

SPECTACULAR SOUND

Rediscover the pleasure of a stereo system. From the very first notes, the Borea speakers immerse you in a wide, open soundstage.
Enjoy your favourite music in a new and exciting way. Appreciate the rhythm, chords and voices recreated naturally with extraordinary energy.

Lifestyle

FRENCH CHARM

Be seduced by the charm of theTRIANGLE speakers. Their style and sonic signature are designed to bring uniqueintensity and increased emotion.

Every listening experience fills the room witha clear, dynamic and precise sound. The sheer musical energy and communicationreaches your soul – and enriches your life.

Versatility

MUSIC & HOME THEATER

The sonic realism and detail, emblematic of the TRIANGLE sound, give the Borea speakers great versatility. They are perfect for both listening to music or in a home theater system.

The range consists of 3 models of floor standings (BR08, BR09 & BR10), 2 models of bookshelf speakers (BR02 & BR03) and a center channel (BRC1). You can set up the most efficient systems ranging from 2.0 to 9.2.2.

Awards

A SUCCESSFULL RANGE

The entire Borea range was recognized by EISA expert as “Best buy home theatre speaker system”. Since it launches in September 2019 the Borea range has received a warm welcome from the critics as well as our customer.

Numerous international Hi-Fi magazines have recognized its excellent performance as well its price / quality ratio. This makes Borea one of the most attractive option for Hi-Fi speakers under a 1000€.

For a more immersive experience, the possibility of combining the Borea range speakers with the Tales 340 subwoofer will be a great option.

A diffusion throughout the room

EFS TWEETER

The tweeter of the Borea range is equipped with a next-generation system called EFS* (Efficient Flow System). It is based on the association of a 25mm silk dome, known for its neutrality, with a phase plug developed specifically to homogenize high-frequency diffusion. This system significantly reduces the directivity regardless of your listening location in the room.

The dome is placed inside the partial horn loading, reducing reflections and allowing a clear reproduction of the high frequencies. This transducer is powered by a neodymium motor generating high magnetic power in a compact size. It is coupled to a cooling system, ensuring a better power handling.

 

A unique tonality

MIDRANGE IN NATURAL CELLULOSE

The Borea range, inheritor of the Esprit Ez technological innovations, also incorporates a midrange driver with a membrane made out of 100% natural cellulose paper, receiving no surface treatment. This paper membrane, unique to TRIANGLE, avoids any coloration of the intermediate frequencies, and transposes the voices with stunning realism and tonality.

In an ongoing pursuit of excellence, the profile of the cone was also redesigned to improve the rigidity and now provides an extended frequency response. On the three-way floor standing, the midrange driver incorporates a small pleat peripheral short-travel suspension, which Triangle is known for. Very rigid and perfectly adapted to the driver with short travel suspension, it allows a perfect control of the movement of the moving elements, thus ensuring natural-sounding vocals.

 

Powerful and precise low frequencies

PUNCHING LOW FREQUENCIES

The mission of TRIANGLE’s engineers is to deliver a rich and dynamic sound in the low frequencies, emphasising the pace without ever distorting the music.


Controlled low frequencies is an ongoing quest. Living up to its reputation, TRIANGLE focuses on fast and precise drivers, with large engines, all housed in optimized cabinets. The impact disappears as quickly as it has arrived, for a perfectly controlled rhythmic reproduction.

To achieve this, TRIANGLE has opted for membranes in fiberglass with an excellent vibratory behavior. Their rigidity enables to strongly reproduce each impact while leaving space for the vocal range, thus keeping an airy sound.

Neutrality and sound clarity

DVAS SYSTEM

Significant research has been carried out to reduce internal vibrations in the cabinet. Unprecedented in speakers of this category, all models of the Borea range feature perforated internal panels in MDF & EVA foam, thus stiffening the transducer/cabinet combination.

This innovative concept not only reduces the vibratory behavior of the structure but also absorbs the vibrations generated by the movement of the bass drivers. This proprietary system unique to TRIANGLE is called DVAS (*Driver Vibration Absorption System). At the end of each internal reinforcement, a high-density EVA foam gasket ensures the contact between the motor of the transducer and the reinforcement. The vibrations of the driver generated by the suspension of the membrane are greatly mitigated, the latter transmitting a low residual vibration to the cabinet.


The DVAS system considerably reduces the vibration of the speaker and reinforces the notion of neutrality and clarity when listening. It results in a better listening experience with no coloration or structure noise.

 

Optimization

DECOUPLING

Each speaker of the Borea range has its own decoupling system. The bookshelf and the center channel models are equipped with rubber pads, protecting your speakers and limiting vibrations transmitted.

The floor standings have a pedestal, ensuring greater stability, on which four inserts allow the implementation of decoupling spikes. Rubber pads are also provided if the flooring does not allow the use of spikes.

 

Esthetics

MAGNETIC GRILL

All speakers in the Borea range have a magnetic protective grill, showing no visible inserts or screws. It is recommended to remove the grills when listening to the speakers, as they can impact the sound.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Speaker use

Recommended room size

The BR08 is recommended for listening rooms with an area between 15 and 50 m2.

Find a model in the Borea range that suits your listening room:
• < 20m2 : BR02
• from 10 to 35m2: BR03
• from 15 to 35m2: BR07
• from 15 to 50m2: BR08
• > 30m2: BR09
• > 40m2: BR10

Amplifier and Power Handling

Recommended Amplifier power : from 75 to 250 Watts (8 Ohms)
Power Handling : 150W

* The power handling of a speaker is the average continuous power that the speaker can accept without damaging the drivers. You can use an amplifier more powerful than the permissible speaker power by limiting the volume to 70% of the maximum capacity. Conversely, an amplifier that is too underpowered will clip and create distortion, which can also damage the speakers if it is used beyond its capacity.

Features

Speaker Specifications

• Type : Floorstanding speakers with front bass reflex port
• Crossover : 3 Ways
• Sensitivity (dB/W/m) : 92dB
• Bandwith (+/-3dB Hz) : 40Hz-22 000Hz
• Nominal impedance : 8Ω
• Minimum impedance : 3Ω

* The impedance of a speaker can be simplified as an electrical resistance. The lower is the impedance of the speaker, the more current the amplifier will have to deliver.
- Nominal impedance is measured at a frequency of 1kHz
- Minimum impedance is measured at low frequencies.

TRIANGLE loudspeakers never fall below 3 Ohms, which means they can be used with almost all Hi-Fi and Home Cinema amplifiers.

Borea BR08

These floostanders with a cretain temperament seduce with their vigor and the openness of the soundstage distilled with ease and style; a new standard in the category.

 

Borea BR03

Triangle gives a sense of enormous scale far greater than rivals such as the formidable B&W 607 loudspeakers. They can also boast impressive separation and precision.

 

Borea BR10

We loved the generosity of these Hifi floorstanding speakers, their bass of rare depth providing real physical sensations, but also their beautifully open midrange, their well-spatialized stereophonic image and above all the overall coherence of the reproduction.
