About the Børresen C-Series Product
DCC5 Neo Driver Membrane
Features a three-layer membrane with spread-tow carbon fiber and honeycomb spacers for unparalleled stiffness and minimal noise.
Magnetic Motor System
Utilizes double copper caps on pole rings for balanced flux and low inductance, reducing amplifier load.
RP94 Tweeter
Exceptional 94 dB efficiency ribbon planar tweeter, operating from 2.5 kHz with low moving mass for speed and detail.
Crossover Design
Based on serial crossover networks for phase-locked current flow, offering more coherent filtering.
Structural Robustness
Enclosures use reinforced wood composite and 1mm carbon fiber panels for rigidity and distortion elimination.
C1 Loudspeaker Stand
Designed for optimal C1 speaker placement and synergy, made from wood composite, avoiding magnetic interference.
Speaker Unpacking Procedures
Unpacking the C1 Speaker
Lay box flat, remove straps, open inner box carefully. Place Darkz in stand pits, lift speaker, and fit.
Unpacking the C2 Speaker
Lay box flat upwards, open carefully, remove accessories. Lift speaker, remove foam, position, and remove cover.
Unpacking the C3 Speaker
Open flight case, remove accessory box, lift loudspeaker, remove all foam, and position speaker.
Connecting the Loudspeakers
C1 Connection Best Practices
Ensure tight contacts, use gold-plated connectors, keep cables separate, and check for looseness.
C1 Speaker Cable Connection
Connect two-pole cables to rear terminals (4-mm plugs) and amplifier outputs. Ensure amplifier is off.
C2/C3 Connection Configurations
Discusses single wiring, bi-wiring, and bi-amping for connecting speakers.
C2/C3 Single Wiring Procedure
Use jumper cables to connect speaker cables to binding posts (poles 1-4) and amplifier outputs.
C2/C3 Bi-wiring Procedure
Connect two sets of speaker wires to upper and lower terminals, then to amplifier outputs.
C2/C3 Bi-amping Procedure
Connect two sets of speaker cables from two amplifiers to speaker poles (1-4) and amplifier outputs.
Speaker Positioning Guidelines
General Positioning Advice
Sound depends on room and setup. Consult dealer for personalized advice.
Distance from Side Walls
About 15 cm distance from sidewalls is sufficient; closer may increase bass.
Distance from Rear Wall
Start with 50 cm. Greater distance gives weaker, more precise bass; shorter gives softer bass.
Distance to Listener
Ideal distance is not less than 3 meters. Angle speakers so lines cross behind listener's head.
Burn-in and Recommended Products
Speaker Burn-in Period
New loudspeakers require 50-100 hours of music playback at decent sound level for optimal performance.
Ansuz Loudspeaker Cables
High-end cables designed for pure signal flow, reducing resistance, induction, and noise for authentic soundstage.
Ansuz Darkz Resonance Control
Devices to mechanically ground vibrations and eliminate resonances for natural sound reproduction.
Adjusting Speaker Feet
Procedure for Leveling
Loosen top discs, turn base to adjust height, and retighten discs. Two people recommended for precision.
