My Triton Ones are being delivered to me tomorrow

I bought a pair of Triton Ones on Wednesday and they are being delivered tomorrow morning. I was extremely impressed by the demonstration and promptly bought a pair. This is the first time in years I got something new, in a sealed box. I am excited and won't sleep much tonight.

I really loved the ribbon tweeters sound but I am wondering if it may bother me over the long haul? I always feel this way when putting something new or different into my system, I guess it's the typical audiophile way of thought. These speakers are replacing a pair of Von Schweikert VR-33 speakers which I am selling in a classified. It will be interesting to compare the two tomorrow before I pack the Von Schweikert's back up.

I just wanted to share my enthusiasm.

I have been listening to the Triton Ones for the last few days at my local audio store. A very nice sounding speaker- it is a huge wall of sound.
The best out of the Golden Ear line up. It is a very well rounded full range speaker.

Don't pay any attention to the finger-wagging, self-righteous buzzkills anymore than you would have on elementary school playgrounds, where they should have remained.

Has anyone had a chance to audition the Triton Ones with the Triton Twos, side by side?

All this love for the Ones has got me thinking.

A couple of months ago I auditioned the Twos. They sounded just fine. Then we substituted the B&W CM10s, and I'm afraid it was no contest: the B&Ws were more fleshed out, more timbrally rich and nuanced, more like complex real instruments in real space.

From all the love they're receiving, it seems as if the Ones are a significant step up over the Twos. The review in Stereophile also seems to suggest as much. Can anyone confirm?
