New Boenicke Audio W11 SE Speaker Review // A New Reference !?


Never listened to Boenicke Audio speakers but these are on my short list now. 
 
I can't wait to hear a pair at one the Shows now.

I just bought the W5 SE+ via Audigon.  Suggestions for an integrated amp/streamer of reasonable equivalency?  

I just sold some B+W 803s and have an MA7900 to sell....so am reinventing my system.

Thanks.

 

I've been very intrigued by the Boenicke speakers both because I love their design and on the basis of reviews and user reports.   They are actually disparaged somewhat among those who favor classically good measurements, and they are beasts to drive apparently.   But I'd love to hear a pair.

Thanks for the responses.  I'm still in search of/decision mode...
NAIM footprint is ideal, but they're under powered for the Boenicke speakers.

Am also a big big fan of Boenicke speakers, particularly the ridiculously good W5. These little wonders have turned my audio world upside down. A gold Note is1000 is a wonderful match with them. But you go much higher end and the speakers won't be the limiting factor. Very special stuff. And it doesn't hurt Sven is such a great guy.

I heard the W8's at the last RMAF in 2019.  The sound that came out of those small floor standers was jaw dropping.  It was one of my favorite speakers at the show.  I would love to hear the W11's and I do understand they like a high current amp to drive them.
