2024 FLAX Saturday Highlights | FLAX 2024
High-end audio is obsessive by nature, which is why I tend to go nuts whenever I see the latest version of the LS3/5a that scales new levels of performance. So my 2024 FLAX Saturday highlights […]

Audio Group Denmark has adopted a fascinating strategy for releasing new models of Børresen speakers. The M class, the flagship Børresen line, keeps heading upwards with bigger and bigger speakers, while the entry-level X line […]
Words and Photos by Greg Weaver My first exposure to the world premiere of the $280,000/pair Børresen M3 loudspeakers at AXPONA in April, driven by the $70,000 each flagship Aavik C-880 linestage and P-880 amplifier, […]
I’ve made a few changes for the 2023 Product of the Year Awards. Usually I limit the nominees to products our team at PTA has reviewed over the year. That implies we have significant seat […]
We’ve had considerable exposure to the Aavik’s flagship 880 line, including the I-880 integrated amplifier, the P-880 power amplifier and the C-880 preamplifier. Whenever we hear one of the amazing Børresen M series speakers, it […]
As a first-timer at CAF, my first order of business was to get a lay of the land. The Rockville Hilton has an unusual but good layout for a conference. Rooms are relatively easy to […]
Just when it seems that Audio Group Denmark is aiming for the highest of the high-end when it comes to their flagship speakers, the $280,000/pr Børresen M3 and the $550,000/pr M6, they’ve gone back to […]
After hearing the prototype of the Børresen X3 loudspeakers at last year’s Capital Audiofest, I’ve been more than mildly curious to give this little rascal a real test drive. Given my repeated exposure to the […]
At the 2023 Pacific Audio Fest, I was asked this question by more than one person: “Haven’t you already heard the Børresen M6 Loudspeakers? In Munich?” No, the $550K/pr M6s were on static display in […]
Compared with last year’s High End in Munich, where I was in a perpetual state of solving huge problems in order to continue with my coverage and ultimately get back home in one piece, this […]
After reading all this coverage about High End 2023 in Munich, you might be wondering about my friends at Audio Group Denmark and what they had in store for the high-end audio industry. At AXPONA […]
I’ve been trying to listen to a pair of Audio Note UK AN-J/D loudspeakers for decades. Why? It’s a long, rambling story but I’ll tell it to you RIGHT NOW. It starts in 1981, in […]
These were the Sonner Audio monitors I was supposed to get a couple of years ago, the pair that left me dumbstruck when I first heard them at the 2019 Capital Audiofest. I’d never heard […]
I first noticed the brand name Axxess when I visited Audio Group Denmark in Aalborg last summer. This mysterious name was present on so much of the signage and promotional materials along with Aavik, Ansuz […]
As I mentioned in my AXPONA 2023 Highlights report, one of the biggest surprises at the show was the introduction, late Thursday night, of the new Børresen M3 speakers. It was exactly a year ago, […]
When I cover high-end audio shows for Part-Time Audiophile, I usually have highlights from Friday, then Saturday, then the in-depth show reports from selected rooms. The AXPONA 2023 highlights are going to be just a […]
Scot Hull and I have discussed my high-end audio past a couple of times, and how I used to be an importer and distributor but now I’m on the other side of the industry as […]
Over the last few weeks Part-Time Audiophile has published a few reviews about ethernet switches, including models from Silent Angel and Ansuz. The Ansuz PowerSwitch D2, reviewed by Marc Phillips, is actually a part of […]
It’s official. With the exception of my complete set of AudioQuest DragonFlies, I’ve now spent more time listening to the Lab12 DAC1 Reference than any other digital-to-analog converter. Does that portend good things for this […]
The latest news out of Audio Group Denmark is the introduction of the new Børresen X3 loudspeaker, which we just saw at the 2023 Florida Audio Expo. (It was in the same room/system as the […]
