  • Page 8: Research And Development

    RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT An ambitious program aimed at expanding the capacities of our corporation, was brought to fruition in 2005 with the construction of a new research center measuring over 500 square meters. The research center was constructed to lay the foundations for what would be essential steps in the development of all future TRIANGLE products.
  • Page 9: General Description

    For example, the 21 cm TRIANGLE drivers used in the MAGELLAN GRAND Concert series require a working volume of 67 liters for the pair. This calculated optimal load will enable the subwoofers to reproduce extremely low-level frequencies, down to 28 Hz, at –3 dB of the reference level.
  • Page 10: New Lines Of Innovative Drivers

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION 3 NEW LINES OF INNOVATIVE DRIVERS THE NEW TZ2900_PM TWEETER This tweeter is an exquisite combination of state-of-the-art mechanics and meticulous tooling. Listeners will enjoy all the nuances of higher-frequency harmonics brought out by their new TZ2900. Extensive audio simulations based on a number of different horn prototypes (approximately 40 different horn shapes were studied) enabled us to develop a new tweeter profile that considerably reduces the directivity of the high frequencies when listening away from the centerline.
  • Page 11 GENERAL DESCRIPTION THE T16GM F100 MIDRANGE LOUDSPEAKER TRIANGLE’s extensive research stems from what we have always considered to be a key ingredient in accurate sound reproduction: the MIDRANGE . The new T16GM F100 is the culmination of the many years of research and development that TRIANGLE has invested in achieving the best in wide- range loudspeaker systems.
  • Page 12 GENERAL DESCRIPTION THE T16GM F100 MIDRANGE LOUDSPEAKER (continued) We also studied the vortex effects caused by the diaphragm at the tip of the cone. In order to prevent this type of aerodynamic disturbance from occurring, we designed an ultra-light anti-vortex polypropylene nose cone covered in specially-formulated latex with high damping characteristics.
  • Page 13 THE MOTOR We designed the T21GM motor to significantly decrease the loudspeaker’s Total Q factor (Qts). In this way, the MAGELLAN GRAND CONCERT subwoofer can handle extremely low frequencies, down to 28 Hz, within -3dB of the reference level. In designing the motor we used special hi-purity metals to machine the magnetic motor’s pole...
  • Page 14 GENERAL DESCRIPTION THE BASS WOOFER (continued) The 4-layer voice coil provides a linear displacement of ± 7mm. The LHSTM 2 system, the same that is used in the midrange, is also used on the T21GM order to increase heat handling capacity.
  • Page 15: Filtering System

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION FILTERING SYSTEM RPC - REGULATED PHASE CROSSOVER The vision behind the development of the new MAGELLAN line was to create very powerful direct drive electro-dynamic drivers for all of the models in the line, regardless of their specific frequency range. Above all, the filter was designed primarily to give the final product the best possible musical characteristics.
  • Page 16 GENERAL DESCRIPTION DPS 2 - DYNAMIC PULSE SYSTEM Grand Concert, Concerto and Quatuor (only the tweeter) TRIANGLE was one of the first manufacturers to turn its attention to symmetric bipolar diffusion, resulting from research into directivity lobes better understand how the human ear perceives sound waves. As early as 1988, TRIANGLE had already begun incorporating a type of pre-DPS into their innovative Transept II, Zenith II and Elypse systems.
  • Page 17 GENERAL DESCRIPTION Sound reproduction becomes holographic while at the same time conserving excellent sound staging Î precision. The position of the listener is no longer a critical factor in relation to the speaker. Therefore the music is Î more lively and expressive, and the reproduction becomes more natural. Conventional speakers Speakers using the DPS system OPTIMIZING THE SYSTEM...

    CHECK THE CONTENT Your TRIANGLE loudspeaker has been set up to provide you with great ease of use as well as optimum listening satisfaction. It is a top-of-the-line product from which you will benefit fully when following the recommendations outlined below. GRAND CONCERT There are 3 boxes (Woofer 1, Woofer 2 and Medium) plus one case containing the accessories inside box of Woofer 2.
  • Page 19: And Installation

    ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION Caution: assembly of Grand Concert and Concerto must be done by two people. ASSEMBLY OF THE 3 DRIVERS ENCLOSURES OF THE MAGELLAN GRAND CONCERTS In order to assembly the three separate enclosures Through the Fixocal system each enclosure is must be assembled by Fixocal system.
  • Page 20: Before The Initial Start-Up Of Your System

    BEFORE THE INITIAL START-UP OF YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE THE INITIAL START-UP OF YOUR SYSTEM, all components must be off. Verify all connection patterns. Pay particular attention to the polarity of each connection : the negative poles of the amplifier and loudspeaker together and the positive poles of the amplifier and the loudspeaker together.
  • Page 21: Amplifier

    AMPLIFIER Plan to use a good quality amplifier (the results will speak for themselves) and one of sufficient power. It is preferable to use a powerful amp in a reasonable fashion, which presents less chance of sound distortion, than to “push” a weak amp beyond its limits and risk seriously shortening the life of your loudspeaker. CONNECTIONS SINGLE WIRING The loudspeaker must be equipped with its connection plates.
  • Page 22: Bi-Amplification

    BI-AMPLIFICATION Bi-amplification consists of supplying power to the bass with one amplifier and to the midrange/treble with another amplifier. Therefore, four mono-block amps or two stereo amps are required. The connection plates must be removed from the terminals. For the Grand Concert, there must be two cables that connect the two amplifiers to the loudspeaker: one cable (B) is connected to the Main ln of the midrange/treble terminal and the other cable is connected to woofer 2 (C).
