The new Borresen M1's...a new direction?

The new stand mount speaker from Borresen, called the M1’s, look very interesting. They are utilizing a 4.5" mid/bass driver and a ribbon tweeter. The bass response is stated to go down to 40hz, which for a 4.5" driver is impressive.

The technology employed in the speaker is also somewhat novel, yet it also comes at a cost.

That cost is $100K. or in Europe 94K Eu.

 

Question is, how many other speaker designers will be producing a stand mount two way with a 4.5" bass/mid driver and now contemplating a price point in the $100-$200K range?

Another question, how many of these M1’s would be expected to sell? And to whom?

@sro -- you have a beautiful system! I, too, recently became addicted to Aavik. I have the Aavik U-280 integrated with built-in DAC and the S-280 streamer. These are phenomenal performers. I have gone through a number of tube and SS components but the new line of integrated amps from Aavik is just in another league.

How are you liking the Ansuz components? I have their BNC cable (P series) which is very good. I'm thinking of trying their power distributor and network switch in the coming months. Let me know what you think of these. Thanks.
