Triangle Magellan 40th Anniversary
Designed from the ground up, featuring several new audio innovations, the new range of speakers from the renowned French manufacturer is limited to 500 pairs per model. The Magellan 40th Anniversary range comprises two floor-standing speakers, the Quatuor 40th and Cello 40th, the Duetto 40th bookshelf speakers; and the Voce 40th center speaker. The new S08 and S08-C speaker stands compliment this new line-up.
Enhanced by multiple coats of lacquer, featuring wood carefully selected and assembled according to grain, the Magellan 40th Anniversary range is available in three luxurious finishes - Golden Oak, Shadow Zebrano, and Space Black. For the Magellan 40th Anniversary range, Triangle has introduced a new magnesium alloy dome for a better transition to the midrange driver. Several years of research and development have led to the design of the new TZ2900 tweeter. Combined with the patented horn tweeter technology, this new transducer brings out all the details of the upper harmonics.
The Magellan 40th anniversary edition speakers are equipped with a proprietary cooling system called LHS 2. A heat sink consisting of a heat transmission ring covers the back of the motor. This heat sink allows optimal heat transmission to the external structure of the driver, thus improving the power handling of the transducer. The crossovers in the Magellan 40th Anniversary range use components selected for their outstanding audio quality. The capacitors have been developed in collaboration with French company SCR Audio, using large section air core coils only, bass and midrange/treble boards are physically separated.
Developed in partnership with Audioquest, the internal wiring of the Magellan 40th Anniversary range consists of a carefully balanced blend of long-grain copper (LGC) and high-purity perfect surface copper (PSC). The resulting output is very clear, with dynamic and controlled bass. As for the prices, the Quatuor 40th Anniversary loudspeakers will cost €7,000, Cello 40th Anniversary - €5,500, Duetto 40th Anniversary - €5,500, and the Voce 40th Anniversary center speaker will be €3,000.
