I would also like to know about the Bordeaux. I built the Halcyons, also by Speaker Design Works (Curt Campbell), and I really like them.
I kinda sorta backed out of selling while I give it a think. Still going to Mike if I decide to sell (if he hasn't blocked me lol). He was very gracious when I told him I wanted to consider building them.These are sold right? Just so I can stop thinking about them. If so good luck! Would love to hear a comparison of the Bordeaux and these, two builds at the top of my list for the next project.
iaRIVR, I hooked up the Bordeaux in my new house. Before I had a cement block built house, tile, windows etc. This house is a 1840's post and beam built farmhouse. The room shape is different but it is amazing how different a set of speakers can sound in a different room/house/etc... I am really enjoying the way the new space sounds. a much richer sound.
alanhuth, they are sensitive to placement I believe due to the rear-firing design. They are fantastic speakers. I have had a lot of speakers go through my system and the Bordeaux always stick around. Here is a build thread I did on them a while back:

Hey no worries. I have a long list of things to tend to so I am not in a rush. If you decide to keep them, I'll just get in touch with Joe and start ordering parts.I kinda sorta backed out of selling while I give it a think.
