EVERYONE was drooling over the NEW Børresen C1 Audiophile Loudspeakers  

*Axpona was super fun. This is just the reveal. I will have my impressions of the entire show soon!* Axpona 2024 HiFi/AUDIO SHOW HIGHLIGHTS! Best of The Show 😮: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rT7zT0tGK2s.html

Woohoo! The X1 was one of my “obtainable” favorites at the show. The Totem Fire V2 also sounds amazing!

I was at AXPONA as well. Great show! I am currently shopping for new bookshelf speakers and thought that hearing Borreson would convince me to buy either the X1 ... or possibly step up to the C1. But i have to say that the Borreson spund is not for me. While I can see how others love them - as they are an extremely fast & detailed sound. However, i found them hyper-detailed with a lack of muaicality or soul. Very impressive for 10 min ... but very clinical and eventually fatiguing for me. I found myself listening to (and for) details, instead of just sitting back and listening to music. For me, I found my sweet spot with Alta Audio. Altal Audio are also detailed and open sounding, with a magical midrange. But I found the Alta Alyssa so much much more musical, and less clinical sounding. In fact, I was so impressed with the Alyssas, I bought them from the distributor the last day of the show. So, I guess this crazy hobby is very subjective after all.

Heard the X series and nothing comes close in that price bracket. The X series brings 90% of the TOTL M series to the table, very curious how the C series will sound.

Correction to "noisless" 3:20. Planar tweeters and drivers have a diaphragm and in fact excactly theese kind of drivers make noise, it is called "diaphragm noise". But due to relatevely small tweeter area (in comparison to large electrostatic panels or other large area magnetostatic drivers) the noise here is probably hardly or no detected by ear. The tweeter is relatively wide so its directivity is for sure compromised in comparison to best 19-22mm domes.

More the Klein tool I’m Interested into the wall covering panel behind the toilet … it looks pretty nice and I’ve been looking for that kind material for so long … can you share info about it ? Many thanks

- Everyone else can just quit ... A.G.D. have performed some kind of Acoustic Magic with their products. Truly a delight at every show ..and every room I hear them. This was soo cool. =)

Was Yamaha at Axpona? Would love ns5000 impressions

Feed this tweeter true pink noise (2V/Z4/1W) using your filter network and it will heavily distort! Sorry for the bad news!

The checkerboard drivers are kinda cool. But the rounded/molded matte cabinet looks kind of cheap and plasticky to me -- very 1980s Sharper Image. Maybe it looks better "in person."

Once again, the budget version ,Scansonic.

No matter how distortionless that driver is, a small 4.5 inch woofer will not do the bass the way 10 or 12 inch does. You need a sub.

I was not drooling.

No word on price? I imagine more then any of the x series....

i dont know what he means by noice? noice dont come from speakers its from electronics. So if you want low noice speaker you want to have low efficiency so you dont hear the noice. He talk its the most important thing... but nothing about directivity and freq responce etc?

I read the X1 have a 4.5" mid woofer, looks more like 6-6.5" to me. I see no SPL rating for them either, and a 4.5" mid woofer will be limited in SPL no matter what is claimed. Can you please clarify that one? I'd love to hear them!

That guy just gave a master class in speaker design. Well done now I’m worried about comb filtering in my Maggies goddamnit.

These guys are killing it! Have a Exxess and it's glorious

I'm curious to hear your review on the C1s Jay in comparison to the X2s. More than twice the price from towers to bookshelves and if the price jump is justified. Aside from the components (drivers, crossovers) are the C1 cabinets also made in Denmark hence the price jump?

Cant figure out if these speakers are good and well designed or not, sadly they dont provide us any measurements freq responce,off axis,directivity? None of these high end components dont matter if the sound and response is bad.

16.5 K - GULP

I didn't see that model on their web site yet, but looks great.

These were supernatural sounding, like Dolby Atmos out of 2 speakers. I have doubts they’ll be forgiving with poor recordings but I will be trying these again at my local dealer soon.

16.5K$ ? That's my yearly social security.

I love thin-film tweeters. I have the GoldenEar BRX (with AMT tweeter). If I ever upgrade, it would be to a Borresen. source=Apple Music

Will be way out of my price range 😅😅😅

Thank you Jay, for sharing this very interesting video with us. The info shared by Michael Borresen (i.e. founder and chief designer of this Borresen C1 speaker) has piques my interest on the mechanism... thank you... 👍

Børresen is on my list for a future system. They truly are genius pioneering technologies.

Look forward to your take on this Jay……heard some really great rigs at Axpona. Always good to get it into ones listening environment on your electronics. Will enjoy hearing your outcome. Thanks. Keep ‘em coming.

I'm actually interested in trying out this speaker

Thanks for telling us this is paid advertising. You're keeping it real Jay....

What was the price on these? Website doesn't say and don't have time to watch the review yet

Wood/fiberboard cabinet is fine, but I suggest it's more about execution. CNC'd aluminum, X resin, Carbon Fiber, 13 ply Baltic Birch ... it's all about execution. Also, he's right about tweeter compression ... it's vital to operate largely free from thermal effects in the tweeter range ... to maintain that ability to accurately track that signal voltage. In my 60's now, as a teen I clearly remember sensing HF compression, and that onset guided listening level ... because it doesn't get any better from that point upward in dBspl.

Great unveiling, but thanks, now I want this C series. Lol.

Wood vs. Aluminum? Interesting debate. Thanks for the video.

Ok Time to put Jay on the spot... Which do you prefer? These or the Mons? I mean you can't go wrong w either, right?

Excellent speakers. We at HiFi Loft in NYC love all there products and have many happy customers

Speakers, Cars, Guns, and what other hobbies am i missing that we fudge the numbers with our partners? Never thought i would lust after a set of speakers but here i am... 😢😂

Neat company

Lars was jamming out to the X1's at SWAF, while attending the room. While it does not describe the sound, the passion for the music was refreshing and fun to see! X1's sounded absolutely fantastic for the price, and more bass than you would expect for their size.

How do these compare with the TADs?

😏так себе-ниочем😏👎

Great choice to go with a standmounts. One only has to look to see how sexy there are.

shilling for Borresen?

This or Dynaudio Confidence 20? Decisions, decisions.

Close up view shows some poor lamination areas on the ring...

Hello what brand are crossover capacitors, coils and inductors?

Really enjoyed them last weekend. But only listened them for 10 min. Would like to try them again.

Is there a center channel on the horizon?? In the x series

Is this a paid advertisement for Borresen?

How are these guys funded? 😅

Without a box you dont have the box noise.

when can we expect C2 and C3 to be announced?

Omg. What a gorgeous looking speaker!

I’m surprised that the don’t use neodymium magnets in the X’s. There are much cheaper speakers using them these days

Unsurpassed area to weight? How do electrostatics compare?

Does this mean this is now better than your Electa Amator 3s?

Does it cost as much or more than car?

Usual obscenely overpriced audiophile stuff, with terrible performances, micro woofer, no bass. My god.
