Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?
Congrats George.  I understand you've upgraded from Raidho D3.1's to Borresen Acoustics model 03's.   Please let us know how they compare in your system once they are broken in.  I understand the Borresen 03 is more efficient than the Raidho D3.1....

Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?
Hello Contuzzi and thank you so much for your comments.  Yes, the Raidho tweeter, which is widely considered one of the best in the business, is now a design which is over 15 years old.  Early reports published elsewhere from a Raidho owner who ha... 
Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?
Thanks for the reply Steve59.   I am mostly curious about opinions on the Borresen Acoustics loudspeaker range.  Raidho loudspeakers which i've listened too have been great - but i've read some reports that suggest the Borresen speakers are even b... 
Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?
Thanks for the additional insight Steve59.   Much appreciated.  Where did you hear them?   I'm guessing the Borresen Acoustics loudspeakers were still new and being broken in?   Can you recall the answer to how many hours were on them?  I am famil... 
Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think?
Which Borresen Acoustics loudspeaker model did you listen to Steve59?  What did you think of them?   What speakers do you currently own?  Cheers. 
Sanders 10c/d + Magtech + tube preamp
Loved the Magtech power amplifier and think it pairs best with a tube pre-amp.   The sound was sterile and lifeless when paired with Sanders pre-amp. 
Totem Hawks - my impressions
Also owned a pair of Totem Hawk loudspeakers for a couple of years.  I thought they were good within their limits.   They struck me as a speaker better suited to acoustical music, vocals and jazz rather than rock.   With rock the woofer can be eas... 
Why So Many Raidho Speaker For Sale?
[ xti16]  Bo - distortion in the tweeter. Dude you just lost all credibility with me. I have yet to hear a more open 3 dimensional sound from any speaker. Maybe you should go on a worldwide tour with your magic and convince us all. BTW are the Aud... 
Coda Audio Video based in San Francisco is running a fraudulent operation
Are they even a Raidho dealer?   I can't find Coda Audio Video listed as a Raidho dealer.https://raidho.dk/partners-in-usa-page/ No.  I believe Coda was terminated some time back.  I further understand that Raidho has reached out to both of the...

Of course they hung up.As one forum owner recently posted "the whole thing is just silly." 
EMM Labs Vs Killer DAC
Interesting thread.So in summary the Killer DAC is a tone control rolling off highs and lows to massage the sound into something that tickles some listeners ears?In doing this the killer DAC losses incisiveness, resolution and dynamic abilities bu... 
Nordost QB8
I really like the QB-8 and felt it made a meaning difference to my system. I wrote about it HERE . What is really important with the QB-8 is to ground it with a garden earth. Using it in conjunction with the QX2 and QX4 as mentioned above is also ... 
Nordost Quattro Fil is still good
Or another recent alternative comes from Ansuz Acoustics. I recently changed out Nordost Heimdall and Valhalla cables for Ansuz. I wrote about it HERE. Similar in character but blacker and more musical.
