Triangle’s story began in 1980 with Renaud de Vergnettes, a young Parisian interior designer who left his career to pursue a singular vision: creating high-fidelity speakers with a sound and style unlike anything else. In a modest garage workshop, he developed early prototypes that combined sculptural form with detailed acoustic performance, using paper-cone drivers and custom filtering to deliver a fast, natural sound.
What started as an experiment became a lifelong pursuit of sonic excellence. Triangle quickly earned praise from respected publications and audiophiles alike, launching its first speaker, the 1180, to critical acclaim.
Today, every Triangle speaker is still designed, assembled, and tested in Soissons, France. With over 40 years of acoustic research and artisanal craftsmanship behind them, Triangle continues to refine its signature sound: expressive, precise, and deeply musical.
They Have Decades of Innovation
1980s: Crafting a New Sound
Triangle launched in 1980 with the 1180 speaker, a two-part design that used Audax paper drivers and custom filtering for a fast, natural sound. Acclaimed by Revue du Son, it set the tone for Triangle’s expressive sonic identity.
1990s: Growth and Experimentation
The 1990s brought wider recognition with the Minimum bookshelf speaker and a new facility in Soissons. Triangle also explored amplifier design, reinforcing its reputation for creativity and acoustic depth.
2000s: Global Ambitions
With the Magellan series, Triangle proved its technical mastery. A custom-built factory opened in 2004 to support growing demand. The decade also saw major transitions: the founder’s retirement, the rise of digital music, and increasing international competition.
2010s-Today: Innovation Continues
A new team embraced modern formats like streaming and vinyl revival while preserving Triangle’s design philosophy. With in-house production and advanced R&D, Triangle continues to grow, mixing tradition with forward-thinking acoustics.
