Why So Many Raidho Speaker For Sale?

Personally i would choose Borresen over Raidho today.Borresen 03s are the ones i'd like to purchase as soon as possible.Best speakers i have heard in the past few years, i've listened to Borresen's full line of speakers and the 03 is the sweet spot.If you are a Raidho fan you might want to look at Borresen and compare.

Because there way over priced DUDE!!!!

The Raidho D1.1 is one of the nicer looking bookshelf I have ever seen in burl walnut, but at $37,000 USD/pair when they were being sold, they offer some of the most extraordinarily bad value when it comes to speakers out there. Not only that, but the woofer is crossed over so high, it would beam terribly. Just an all around bad design, would measure and sound pretty bad.


For the same price, you can get yourself the SUBSTANTIALLY beefier, better made and nicer looking TAD Compact Reference 1 bookshelf speakers.

Of course, limiting yourself to bookshelf speakers in this price bracket is a bit nutty. You get way, way more for your money if you look at floor standers.

I've fallen for the Vandersteen Kēnto's for similar money. Best in class for my money and ears.  The point you make about getting a legit full range speaker that doesn't beam or smear and gives you all the octaves makes a ton of sense, especially considering a floor stander takes up the same footprint as the monitor and due to so many things, gives you as good or better imaging, staging and everything else that monitors 'used' to give you.  

Again, some buy for looks and others buy for great sound.  No one is wrong as it's personal choice.
