The timing matters less than the exact generation: “Antal” covers several iterations, with the current line having evolved considerably from older versions. At €950, though, this is a strong deal against the supplied comparables: it sits exactly at the 25th-percentile asking price, well below the €1,239 median and far below the €2,058 upper quartile.
The Antal remains a particularly appealing enthusiast speaker for its lively dynamics, clear, expressive midrange, wide imaging and high sensitivity, so it can sound energetic without demanding a huge amplifier. Triangle’s generally forward, vivid presentation suits vocal, acoustic and rhythmically driven music, while the floorstanding cabinet provides useful scale and bass weight. In excellent condition, €950 looks like a genuine buying opportunity; confirm the exact version, matching pair, intact grilles and terminals, but there is no need for reflexive caution at this price.
