Center Sensitivity: 91 dB from 500 Hz to 2 kHz
Surround Sensitivity: 89.5 dB from 500 Hz to 2 kHz

This graph shows the quasi-anechoic (employing close-miking of all woofers) frequency response of the Triton Two L/R (purple trace), SuperSat 50C center channel (green trace), and SuperSat 3 surround (red trace). All passive loudspeakers were measured with grilles at a distance of 1 meter with a 2.83-volt input and scaled for display purposes.

The Triton Two’s listening-window response (a five-point average of axial and +/–15-degree horizontal and vertical responses) measures +1.14/–4.13 decibels from 200 hertz to 10 kilohertz. The –3-dB point is at 44 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 36 Hz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 4.27 ohms at 383 Hz and a phase angle of –38.88 degrees at 218 Hz.

The SuperSat 50C’s listening-window response measures +2.41/–3.64 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. An average of axial and +/–15-degree horizontal responses measures +2.43/–4.44 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. The –3-dB point is at 107 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 83 Hz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 4.07 ohms at 338 Hz and a phase angle of –40.66 degrees at 213 Hz.

The SuperSat 3’s listening-window response measures +2.80/–3.24 dB from 200 Hz to 10 kHz. The –3-dB point is at 179 Hz, and the –6-dB point is at 156 Hz. Impedance reaches a minimum of 4.63 ohms at 356 Hz and a phase angle of –40.32 degrees at 254 Hz.—MJP
