What's the story with Borresen speakers ?


Browsing Borresen website I see only 2 speaker lines : O & Z.

What happened with the X & the last year introduced C series ?

The pricing on higher end models of Borresen is perhaps inspired by Daryl Willy and Alon Wolf (none of these guys have ever been worth the price), but...atleast they look better/have higher WAF than Daryl and Alon’s stuff.

I don’t know who is responsible for the B.S. present in all the older Raidho and now Borresen advertising but I am sure it is Lars, the man who spouts and spouts and busts your eardrums at any audio show, not mentioning his terrible taste in demo music.

My older Raidho D2s are superb loudspeakers, and my keepers, but they were $17k used and in mint condition with the Burl wood finish. They retailed at $59K when new and not so many years earlier.

Now their insane options, "cryo" for example, are simply ridiculous and worthy of ’the emperor’s new clothes’ as a moniker. I dare anyone to hear them and tell me the difference without sight, in one session or over months.

Borensen owners don’t sell their speakers that quick. It took awhile before I saw my x1 speakers showed up used at TMRauddio.

Agreed!  I don't plan to sell my D2s unless I hit the mega-lottery, as another step up would be pretty much a supreme effort in diminishing returns so far as I can tell.

For my medium sized open room the D2s still float my boat after almost nine years. I know folks get bent about blind testing and I always test over a long period of time without going 'blind' but the differences are rather sublime at a certain level.

There are 16 pairs of Borresen speakers listed for sale on hifishark.  One dealer is selling 4-5 demo pairs.  Doesn't sound like a dearth of used one for sale to me.
