Børresen C1 – Exclusive high-end compact speaker with innovative technology and superior sound

Børresen C1 is a unique and exclusive stand-mounted high-end speaker that combines cutting-edge technology with elegant design. For the first time ever, Børresen introduces its advanced technologies in a compact speaker, resulting in a sound experience out of the ordinary. The C1 is the answer to the dreams of many hi-fi enthusiasts around the world, and it has absolutely been worth the wait.

Despite its compact size, it manages to fill the room with a musical presence normally experienced only with much larger speakers. The sound from the Børresen C1 is exceptionally detailed, dynamic, and full-bodied. The bass and midrange are reproduced with a precision and depth that are nothing short of unmatched.

• Sophisticated magnetic motor system with dual copper caps that reduce electromagnetic resonance
• Børresen RP94 ribbon tweeter with ultralight diaphragm for exceptional precision and speed
• Series crossover network for coherent and natural sound reproduction
• Robust cabinet design with carbon fiber panels for minimal distortion
• Including C1 speaker stand with Ansuz Darkz S2t Resonance Control for optimal sound quality

Advanced DCC5 NEO bass/midrange driver

At the heart of the C1's impressive performance is the specially developed 5-inch Børresen DCC5 NEO bass/midrange driver. This unit is precision-engineered to deliver superior clarity and dynamics in the midrange and bass frequencies. The diaphragm consists of an innovative three-layer construction: two layers of spread-tow carbon fiber with a honeycomb structure in between. This unique design provides optimal rigidity and reduces unwanted vibrations and resonances. The result is incredibly clean and natural sound reproduction that lets you experience the music exactly as the artist intended.

Innovative magnetic motor system

The C1 is equipped with a sophisticated magnetic motor system with dual copper caps on the pole rings. This advanced technology minimizes electromagnetic resonance and reduces inductance. That means less strain on your amplifier and more efficient, precise control over the driver's movements. This leads to more detailed and distortion-free sound that brings you even closer to the music.

Børresen RP94 ribbon tweeter – Speed and precision

One of the most striking features of the C1 is the renowned Børresen RP94 ribbon tweeter. With an ultralight moving mass of only 0.01 grams and an impressive efficiency of 94 dB, this tweeter delivers outstanding reproduction of the highest frequencies. It captures even the finest details and nuances in the music and handles strong transients without any sign of distortion. This ensures a crystal-clear and nuanced listening experience, where every instrument and every vocal stands out clearly in the soundstage.

Series crossover – Harmonious and natural sound reproduction

To achieve coherent and natural sound, the C1 uses a series crossover network. Although this crossover design is more complex to implement, it provides harmonious integration of the frequencies by ensuring phase-correct current flow to the speaker's drivers. This results in a more authentic and engaging listening experience, where the music flows freely and undisturbed across the entire frequency spectrum.

Robust cabinet with exclusive materials

The cabinets of the C1 are made from internally reinforced wood composite material, designed to minimize standing waves, sound distortion, and external resonances. By combining this with 1 mm thick carbon fiber panels on the sides, the cabinet's rigidity is significantly increased. The glossy white or black side panels give the speaker an elegant and modern look that fits perfectly into any stylish home. This construction ensures that you get precise and undisturbed sound reproduction, no matter what volume you listen at.

C1 speaker stand – Synergy between speaker and stand

To ensure the optimal listening experience, the C1 is designed to stand on the specially developed C1 stand. The stand is made from the same robust wood composite material as the speaker, creating perfect synergy between the two. The absence of iron components eliminates the risk of magnetic interference with the crossover network, contributing to cleaner sound. The stand is also equipped with Ansuz Darkz S2t Resonance Control units, which effectively reduce vibrations and further improve sound quality. For those who want to optimize even further, it is possible to upgrade with additional Darkz units.
