NEW Tekton Design Speakers - The Bonnevilles
I would wager that the sonic comparison would be that of a mack truck running over a pretty li'l pinata. But, it's better to go with the pretty li'l pinata than making alimony payments, i suppose. O brother. Monitor Audio should not be mentione... 
What's the story with Borresen speakers ?
I don't think it was Borresen's intent ever to be a "more affordable" brand.  The X series was probably a more temporary offering to get their sound in the hands of more individuals and get them talking (get the hype up)....because there's not mu...

A new horn is brewing in the cauldron?
This seems more like it... He must know that viewers would be curious, so it must be a tease for an upcoming model.  
Such Great help before. Maybe some more help now
Get a good subwoofer. Here’s one with a design philosophy that would align better with your cornwall and not break the bank. https://tektondesign.com/product/subwoofers/cinema-sub/#color  
Aggrivated tinnitus from speakers?
Alcohol (Sir-Drink-A-Lots need to make a choice) and hypertension are big tinnitus culprits, not to mention medications, etc.     
TAD Speakers

Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
Incorrect...a luxman c900u + m900u will drive any speaker at any price and can salvage many a undeserving turd posing as a high end speaker ( make it sound a whole lot better than it should). Boulder or Gryphon never knew how to design an amp bett... 
Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
After my 1st marriage fell through the drain (no death no until part crap n all..), I got more tactical. I threw big house parties in a house filled with gear and scanned the party persons pool with more scrutiny.... looked to see if such an envir... 
Gryphon Diablo 300 to cornwall iv
  JBL HDI-3800 would be a better match for that amp around the cornwall’s price range. It would not have the kind of engineering deficiencies present in the cornwall as well.

@carlsbad2 Monitor Audio is a UK company, no recourse for a US ...well... don’t know if he went through the hassle of EPO for Europe after his US patents were granted, not to mention the Brexit complication, etc I agree on "many models" in the c... 
NEW Tekton Design Speakers - The Bonnevilles
@carlsbad2 I am not a fanboy of any brand... But, you gotta give some credit when it’s due. When I briefly owned the Double Impacts, I tore it down and it took me quite a while to simulate it/understand what he’d done with the crossover, etc..ev... 
Advice on making a speaker change
  My dilemma is twofold. I still think my speakers sound great in many ways. They are musically involving and still dazzle me on occasion. They have some weak points as do ALL speaker designs. I value a big soundstage, imaging, tonal accuracy...
