with a big boy model!! I've heard the little one twice. Stop teasing!!
Unfortunately, I KNOW (ears tested fairly regularly due to Meniere's) that I do not hear above 10K anymore, heck when a 10KHz tone plays I hear dead silence! And I thought that the Borresen's sounded too bright. I actually thought they were Raidho's when I walked in the room (they look the same) but when I heard them I started looking around to see if they were in fact Raidoh's, because the sonic signature didn't sound right. The signs posted said they were Borresen's and I left rather disappointed. Probably a bad "set-up" or typical show problems, but they didn't please my ears. I'm sure they are good under the right conditions as they have great drivers and cabinet technology - but my one encounter with them thus far wasn't great.
