Agreed, BUT for example the Aavik U-300 (which is also a Borrensen/Anzus design) is worth what i paid for it 'to me' ... then again i paid just under half the RRP which was an eye watering £22/25K.

Which proove they are creating insane uber-price.
Whether it will compete with either Vitus, Naim or Audionet, I have no idea or interest, I don't listen with my wallet.

Our local Anzus dealer announce ex-dem Borresen cables of all kinds, savings on 60-75% is not unusual. I'm having a laugh sometime.
I wouldn't even read mail correspondence from such a Co, neither would I call them bull-shitter.

I tried it Col; amazing lack of background noise! Trouble is the utter lack of foreground sound as well :p
 
To quote myself :D

So here's a few observations on the LS-40s v the Anzus A2's. tried to keep it short and to the point:

I had the Anzus cables in for 3-4 days to get used to them, which I found dark and recessed at first. Being brand new the Anzus A2's did start to open up but still, I had a feeling they were voiced to perhaps work in a full Aavik/Anzus/Borrensen context... after all they are the same company really. The A2's were excellent with rock music but felt slightly controlled/contrived in general. The LS-40s were a breath of fresh air when they came. They are superbly neutral, full of detail, but in a perfectly relaxed manor. Plus, the bass depth and resolution on the LS40 is astonishing. The mid-band is beautifully resolved with an ever so slightly silky effect. The highs are also completely present with no feeling of being restraint but manage to do so without drawings attention to themselves in anyway.

As you may see from the beginning of this thread, I was the first in line but had a different setup then and in the context of that amp the LS-40s appeared negligible.

In the new Setup (details below) The superior effects of the LS-40 was near enough instantly recognised which goes to show context and synergy is key.

I had the Audionet DNA 2.0 when I demoed the LS-40s first time around, and then a Vitus RD-100/RS-100 pre/power for a month or so before the Aavik U-300.

The U-300 and the LS-40's are perfect together IMHO, the synergy is frankly astonishing. Since Thursday I haven't stopped re-listening with new admiration to many of my favourite albums.
 
@Yivez Just heard from Alan @ABCaudio my cables will be sent out Thursday so should be able to get the 'touring LS-40s' out to you by the end of the week. They'll be in a new mailer box, the old one looked to have seen better days...
