Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?

Listened to the Vimberg Tonda at the Paris Hifi show early december, didn't like them at all, stayed no more than 5 min in the room.

I've just purchased my first Raidho speaker recently, the XT-1 and looking for an integrated to pair it up.  Right now, I am using the Ayre AX-7e and seems to me that I not giving enough juice to the Raidhos and then I find this thread.  Any recommendation for integrated amp that will be a good match?
Gryphon 120
Luxman 590
Jeff Rowland Continuum S2 
Burmester 082
to name a few.
I love the soundstage, the clarity, the precision on the Raidhos.

Borrenson will have a bookshelf 15k to 18k...plus 2 other models

I first heard the 01s at FL Audio Expo 2019 and was shocked how those little speakers sounded like they had two subwoofers hooked up to them. Very big sound. Clean as it can be. Big soundstage. They are definitely a top class hi-end speakers that do everything right. 

I heard them again at FL Audio Expo 2020. See last year the Danish guy, I can’t recall his name now. He played his own music and that guy knows his stuff. He knows how to setup the speakers, which tracks to play. Well, this year this guy gave his own CDs and the 01s sounded horrible. I mean so horrible that I had to leave the room. 

To me, even in 2019, they weren’t worth $37K. Not to mention I don’t like speakers that sound hi-fi. Don’t know what it means but I guess if it is too perfect, I lose the soul of the music. I know it doesn’t make sense but I prefer my Harbeths because they make music although they don’t do everything perfectly. 

However, same show this year, I have heard the Joseph Audio Perspective2s and I was floored. They’re the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. I haven’t heard any speakers that sound close to live performance that much. And they are $15K, way cheaper than 01s.
Btw, I think the amp that was powering the 01s was Aavik (spelling?)

The one thing about the AG forum is no matter what speaker you want to talk about audiophiles are going to come on and post about whatever they like better, wait did I just describe myself.lol

@celo I believe the amp was the Aavik U380. That guy was probably Lars.
While the 01's are killer the 03's are the sweet spot in the lineup.

@xti16 correct, his name is Lars.  I don’t know. Really, it is too much money. I’d rather have Joseph Audio Perspective2s for $15K. 

Agreed

Jeff rowland has great great sounding gear

If you really want to know how Borresens can really sing you need a no compromise high current and very musical amp, something like Dagostino Momentum S250 is a good example.

Just gotcthe pricing on the new speakers geared for people looking for great sound, less money. 11k is the intro speakers...next model 18k..then the 25k. Think these will be avail in 2 months in usa

@nyaudio98 do you mean the 01s and others have new prices? 01s cost $11K now? If that’s the case, I frankly wouldn’t want to do business with them. That’s a pretty bad start for a company. Can you believe people purchased the 01s at $37K, now it is $11K. They ripped off their customers in my eyes. At $11K they’re still making money. How do I know, next year they will not say “now the 01s are $5K” :) I hope I misunderstood you. 

Its a lower end speaker......not the same as other speakers they designed. 

My post said new speakers..nothing about pricing of old speakers or shall i say current line they offer. 

@nyaudio98 after your post, I checked their website. I didn’t see their new speakers. Sorry my bad.
Lowering their price for their higher end speakers dramatically, would be a bad move. I didn’t make sense. Well, it makes sense now that you were talking about their new line.

I think the new Marten Oscar Trio is a all around better speakers! 
 
Go listen to both before buying!.. 

 Best Kept Secret...

The 11k monitor was listened to in europe, its sensational and has borreson sound.....but its up to the listener. 

These are more of an introductory level of speakers fromcthe bigger speakers. Worth a listen id say

@b_limo I was going to mention Joseph Audio (again) like I did before in this thread but decided not to steal the show from Borresen. Since you mentioned, I’d like to say I’d buy Joseph Audio Perspective2s any day of the week instead the Borresen.

Interesting feedback on boressons at rmaf. Josephs get alot of great press for sure. 

Here's a review on the compact Borresen Acoustics 01 speakers....they say these are the finest small speakers they have ever heard!..

What do you guys think if i purchase a Gryphon Mephisto stereo instead of CH M1.1stereo to drive Borresen 03s ?

How much are the 03s

60k in Europe and i think 70k in the US.

Hi guys i'll be getting either new 03s or if possible to find a good deal on a demo pair of 05s.Will drive them with Gryphon Mephisto stereo.I think this pairing hasn't been done yet.Anyone own 05s on Audiogon ?Cheers.

He now has speakers that have been treated cryogenics..enhanced sound
