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

Borresen Acoustics have recently launched three models of loudspeaker.   The chief designer is ex-Raidho Acoustics.  Just wondering whether anyone heard or auditioned them and if so what were your impressions?  When commenting please let us know what loudspeakers you have today as this provides a useful point of reference.

Heard the Borrensen-01s at RMAF-2019 and they amazingly
filled a huge room with ease, no strain and simply beautiful sound.  I have heard some good stand mount speakers in the past but the 01 sets a new bar.  Just wish they were not $35k.  I'll be watching the used market for sure.

@ xti16 (George) your dealer have any 01 trade-ins?

Not 01's but should have some 02 trade-ins in about a month. That customer is upgrading to the 03's. In fact his 03's arrived but the dealer has agreed to break them in before delivery. New Borresen speakers take a good 500hrs of break-in time to really sing. BTW the stands are an additional $5K to the configuration of those 01's they had there.
