Borresen X3 measurements


Borresen’s X3 measures pretty badly which contradicts a lot of the praise…

IMO the important issue here is NOT that the X3 measured poorly but the sound I heard at Axpona 2023 was a speaker that was not musically coherent. 

Borensen speakers are not bright , they sound amazing, I listen to their c1 monitor 16k so impressed though I have 13 pair of speakers ? I end up buying the x1!monitor.The x1 cabinet are superb and very quiet. This speakers made me realize how a good cabinet sounds. And it made me to go back to listen with my diapason adamantes, technic, and Norh marble speakers. Now I appreciate them more because of x1 quiet presentation.it teach me to finally realize how a good built cabinet does. Iam not really into measurement . If your ears prefer other sound don’t buy them. Choose the one that will make your ears happy.

@kennymac..............I totally agree with your posts...You Make Sense.  The X-3 have to get off the ground. Iso Acoustics or The new Axxses  Isolation pads w/ titanium rollers change the sound noticeably for the better......Some tweaks work really good....others are snake oil. These x-3's are a tremendous Value for 11K.

I've heard the X3 finally and my initial thought was dam nice but the more I listened the less I liked it..There is an obvious issue with midrange.I think the review hits the nail squarely.This all maybe for nothing as its been replaced or soon will be as we are aware how things at Borresen change rather quickly.For me id wait for the better /upgraded/replaced version or buy the X at firesale prices which I'm sure won't be long.
