The Triangle BRC2 White represents the natural evolution of the Borea range, designed by the French manufacturer Triangle. This center speaker stands out with its new 16 cm drivers made of natural cellulose pulp, delivering a wider and more precise rendering of dialogue in your movies and series. Equipped with a 25 mm fabric dome tweeter and 91 dB sensitivity, the BRC2 provides exceptional vocal clarity while retaining the dynamic, musical character inherent to Triangle’s sonic signature.
A significant evolution in the Borea range
The BRC2 is a step up compared to its predecessor, the BRC1. While the BRC1 was fitted with 13 cm mid/bass drivers, the BRC2 moves up a gear with 16 cm transducers. This increase in size is no coincidence: it extends the low-end frequency response (50 Hz versus 57 Hz for the BRC1) and improves the speaker’s overall dynamics. Power handling also rises from 100W to 120W, providing extra headroom to faithfully reproduce action scenes without compression.
This new center speaker is part of the recent expansion of the Borea range for home theater. Triangle has complemented its collection with two new models: the BRC2 and the BRS1 (dipole/bipole surround speaker). These additions now make it possible to build complete, coherent home theater systems, from simple 2.0 up to the most ambitious 9.2.2 configurations.
Clean design and construction
True to the aesthetics of the Borea range, the BRC2 features a clean, elegant design, with no visible screws and a magnetic grille. This minimalist approach is not merely cosmetic: it also contributes to sound quality by eliminating potential sources of diffraction and resonance.
The BRC2 cabinet benefits from the DVAS (Driver Vibration Absorption System), a technology previously reserved for more expensive speakers. This system includes internal perforated MDF panels and EVA foam, with a high-density foam gasket ensuring contact between the driver’s motor and the reinforcement. This sophisticated construction reduces and absorbs vibrations generated by the drivers, ensuring purer, more precise sound reproduction.
Technologies and audio performance
The BRC2 inherits acoustic innovations developed for the Esprit Ez series, notably in cabinetmaking and driver diaphragms. The 25 mm EFS (Efficient Flow System) fabric dome tweeter is equipped with a neodymium magnet and a phase plug designed to smooth the dispersion of the high-frequency range while reducing directivity. This design ensures even sound dispersion throughout the room, regardless of listening position.
The two 16 cm mid/bass drivers use a natural cellulose pulp diaphragm, a Triangle specialty. This material offers an excellent balance between rigidity and internal damping, avoiding any artificial coloration in the midrange. The result is strikingly realistic vocal reproduction, giving dialogue the intelligibility and intensity needed for perfect comprehension, even in the most complex scenes.
The front-ported bass-reflex configuration allows the speaker to be placed close to a wall without creating unwanted vibrations or resonances. This feature offers great placement flexibility, a valuable asset in home theater installations where space is often limited.
Integration into a home theater system
The center speaker plays a crucial role in a home theater system, as it is responsible for delivering dialogue and front sound effects. A good center speaker must faithfully render both the most subtle effects and the most powerful impacts. The BRC2 excels in this area thanks to its extended bandwidth (50 Hz – 22 kHz) and high sensitivity (91 dB).
For optimal results, it is recommended to pair the BRC2 with other speakers from the Borea range. Triangle offers a complete lineup including:
Two effects speakers (BRA1 for Atmos effects, BRS1 for surround effects)
This consistency across the range enables the creation of a homogeneous home theater system, where all speakers share the same sonic signature and technologies. To complete the setup, Triangle recommends adding the subwooferTales 340, particularly well-suited to Borea speakers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main difference between the BRC2 and the BRC1?
+
The key difference lies in the size of the mid/bass drivers: 16 cm for the BRC2 versus 13 cm for the BRC1. This increase in size provides better low-frequency extension (50 Hz versus 57 Hz), higher power handling (120W versus 100W), and slightly higher sensitivity (91 dB versus 90 dB). The BRC2 thus delivers a wider, more dynamic rendering of dialogue and front sound effects.
Can I pair the BRC2 with speakers from other Triangle ranges?
+
While the BRC2 is optimized to work with other speakers in the Borea range, it can integrate seamlessly into a system using speakers from other Triangle series. Sonic coherence will be preserved thanks to Triangle’s distinctive acoustic signature. However, for perfect uniformity, it is preferable to stay within the same range.
Can the BRC2 be used without a subwoofer?
+
With a frequency response extending down to 50 Hz, the BRC2 can reproduce much of the audio spectrum required for dialogue and central sound effects. For films with plenty of special effects or orchestral music, adding a subwoofer like the Tales 340 is still recommended to achieve the physical impact of the lowest frequencies.

Replacement for my Noxa Major, accuracy and quality of the extensive information provided for the hub. Like the BR03 and 09, it’s very attractive with or without the covers. A masterstroke from Triangle at this price.

Remplacement de ma noxa major, précision et qualité des nombreuses informations données pour la centrale. Comme les br03 et 09 elle est très esthétique avec ou sans les caches. Coup de maître de Triangle à ce prix.
Paul
Superb aesthetically and to the ear as well. Beautiful rendering of dialogues, and great balance.
Switching from an entry-level home cinema kit to a Borea system is life-changing.
Thank you, HomeCineSolutions.

Superbe esthétiquement et à l'oreille aussi. Belle restitution des dialogues, et bel équilibre
Passer d'un kit home-cinema d'entrée de gamme à un ensemble Borea change la vie.
Merci homecinesolutions.

Excellent speaker that reproduces voices in Blu-ray movies or on TV with great precision. Used with a Marantz 40, it works wonders in that regard.

Excellente enceinte qui permet de restituer les voix des films blu-ray où tv de manière très précise. Utilisée avec marantz 40 elle fait des merveilles de ce côté là.
