Product description
The Borea that stopped being a bookshelf in anything but name. Its 210 mm cellulose-pulp mid-bass needs a 300 mm baffle, which makes this cabinet wider than all three Borea floorstanders — the BR10 above it is 281 mm — and at 14.6 kg it is nearly twice the BR04 it follows. The big cone and a low 1.7 kHz crossover leave the tweeter only the top two octaves, and two front ports reach 42 Hz while still tolerating a wall behind. It wants a stand built for the load, not a shelf.
