@falconquest Field coil drivers? Are you sure that in a smaller stand mount that would be preferable?
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?

@steve59 Somehow, I do not think you will be seeing a used pair of M1’s showing up anytime soon. If they did, i seriously doubt they would sell for 10% of retail. Nonetheless, what you say about the club is true, IME. In some ways, this makes it better for the rest of us, because these very same folk can afford to dump great gear at far lower prices. |
