No single best speaker here - they are built to different priorities, and the right one depends on your room, your sources and what you listen to.
| Area | Better | Why |
|---|
| Bass | B | KEF Coda W digs deeper - 41Hz against 47Hz. A subwoofer would even that out. |
| Built-in power | evenly matched | Similar onboard amplification (120W vs 100W RMS). |
| Connections | A | Triangle Borea BR03 Connect adds phono. |
| Size | depends | KEF Coda W is easier to place; Triangle Borea BR03 Connect is bigger, which usually goes with fuller bass. Your room decides. |
| Expandability | depends | Triangle Borea BR03 Connect: a sub output; KEF Coda W: a sub output. |
| Price | A | Triangle Borea BR03 Connect is cheaper - $799 against $999, about 20% less. |

depends neither is better in the abstract - it turns on your room, your system or how you will use them. Only specs published for both speakers are judged; anything missing on either side is left out rather than guessed.
Which should you choose?
Neither runs away with it - they trade advantages. Let the "depends" rows and your own room settle it. If a subwoofer is in your plans, the bass gap largely stops mattering - you would be crossing over above 47Hz anyway, which makes the cheaper Triangle Borea BR03 Connect much easier to justify. In a large or open-plan room, Triangle Borea BR03 Connect has the cabinet volume to fill it more easily; in a small room, near a wall or at desk distance, KEF Coda W is the easier speaker to get right.
And remember what a spec sheet cannot show: how each looks in your room and whether the finish suits it, what dealer support and warranty are like where you live, and how they actually sound to you. If you can hear them first - ideally with your own music - that will tell you more than any number above.
