Triangle Pack Comète + Voce black ash
Overview
This pack combines two signature models from Triangle’s workshop to create a versatile setup equally suited to music listening and home cinema. The Comète, a historic bookshelf speaker from the brand, is paired with the Voce center channel to form a coherent ensemble that draws on over four decades of French acoustic expertise.
An Acoustic Heritage Forged in Soissons Since 1980
Since its founding by Renaud de Vergnette, Triangle has upheld a unique approach to sound reproduction. The Soissons-based workshop, employing sixteen people, assembles around 2,500 speakers per year, each individually tested in its semi-anechoic chamber. This artisanal production ensures exemplary sonic consistency, with every unit fine-tuned to compensate for the natural variations in components.
Triangle’s French acoustic signature favors liveliness and precision in timbre reproduction—a philosophy born from the founder’s passion for classical music, where each instrument retains its distinct presence.
The Comète: Evolution of an Iconic Bookshelf Speaker
An emblematic model since the 1990s, the Comète maintains compact dimensions (200 × 324 × 400 mm) while delivering bass performance that defies convention. The 25 mm TZ2500B titanium dome tweeter, refined over decades, extends up to 22 kHz with controlled directivity. The 16 cm mid-bass driver, made from natural cellulose pulp, continues a 35-year tradition, prioritizing neutrality and natural texture for vocals.
The front-ported bass-reflex design allows flexible placement, even close to walls. With a frequency response down to 49 Hz and a sensitivity of 90 dB/W/m, the Comète works well with moderately powered amplifiers while maintaining broad compatibility thanks to its minimum impedance of 4.2 Ω.
The Voce: Precision and Consistency for Dialogue
Sharing the TZ2500B tweeter with the Comète, the Voce ensures the tonal consistency essential for multichannel setups. Its two 13 cm mid-bass drivers optimize vocal reproduction and front sound effects. The extended dimensions (510 × 290 × 168 mm) provide horizontal dispersion suited to its role as a center channel.
With a sensitivity of 91 dB/W/m and a frequency response from 60 Hz to 22 kHz, it covers the vocal range and dynamic effects perfectly. The dual front-ported bass-reflex design makes integration into furniture easy, while the minimum impedance of 5.3 Ω ensures compatibility with home theater amplifiers.
Technologies and Design: The Triangle Approach
The glass stands feature decoupling spikes inspired by the SPEC system from higher-end ranges, dissipating vibrational energy to preserve sonic clarity. The crossover benefits from a rigorous selection of components, with a focus on simplicity to minimize losses and phase shifts.
The finish, the result of a process that can take several weeks, contributes to the rigidity of the enclosure and the damping of resonances.
Integration and Practical Use
The Comète + Voce pairing forms a solid foundation for a 3.0 home theater setup in rooms from 15 to 35 m². Their versatility also allows for pure stereo use of the Comète for music listening. For optimal placement, position the Comète at ear level, spaced according to listening distance, with the Voce centered relative to the screen and angled toward the main listening area.

Frequently asked questions
What amplifier power is suitable for this pack?
The high sensitivity of both models (90–91 dB) allows for satisfactory operation from as little as 30–40 watts per channel. To fully exploit their dynamics, especially in home cinema, an amplifier delivering 50 to 80 watts into 8 ohms is a balanced choice. The relatively low minimum impedance means you should check that your amplifier is stable at 4 ohms.
Does bi-wiring provide an audible improvement?
Both models feature dual binding posts to allow this configuration. The benefits are still debated and largely depend on the quality of amplification and cabling used. Triangle recommends investing in quality single-wire cabling rather than bi-wiring with mediocre conductors.
What’s the difference between the EZ and 902 ranges?
Launched in 2014, the 902 range offered a more accessible approach while retaining Triangle’s core values. The newer EZ series benefits from additional developments, especially in diaphragms and crossovers. Both maintain the brand’s spirit, with subtle differences in sound presentation.
Are these speakers suitable for all music genres?
Triangle’s lively and detailed signature is particularly well-suited to jazz, classical, and acoustic recordings. Fans of electronic music with very deep bass may wish to add a subwoofer, but versatility remains the hallmark of these models.
