Hi - I have an opportunity to trade my Raidho X2.6 for a pair of Borresen Z2 Cryo speakers. I would love to hear some input from anyone that owns these speakers. Thanks!
I did end up doing the trade with BEK Hifi. I have had three pairs of Raidho speakers and I am looking forward to listening to the differences between the two manufacturers.
I'll be curious to hear your impressions. Over the last decade I had owned nothing but Raidho's using all Ansuz/ Aavik cabling and electronics. In total, 5 speakers, from the original X1 up to the TD3.2's before I bought my first Borresen...
Hi waorwraith - I have owned 3 pair of Raidho speakers and I have all Ansuz & Axxess accessories and components. I am addicted to the sound and the Borresen seems to be the natural progression. The C3 and a U 188 are what I want eventually, but I will have fun with the Z2 cryo for the time being. I won’t get the Z2 until next week, but I will send you my opinion when I get some time for critical listening. Thanks, Todd
@waorwraith, how do you like the Borresen? I moved from the Raidho X1T to Borresen X2 and went back to Raidho. The Borresen had more bass but the Raidho was better at everything else. I also don’t love bright speakers and I found the Borresen to be too bright for me no matter what gear I paired it with. I tried a dozen amp and preamp combos and couldn’t get it to not be too bright for me on certain songs. The Raidhos never sound too bright.
