Borresen X3 measurements

It looks like the speakers drivers are from SB Acoustic:

No one is pissing on you,but when you throw opinions around as fact..we'll some user's have to call  BS.To be expected I'd think.The X3 was flavor of the month and now some are moving on to better deals for the investment ,some find that speaker has issues  and not interested and some like yourself claim them as gospel according to Borresen.

didn’t look like somebody’s DIY speaker project from the 70’s

I didn’t intend this to be a pissing match based on looks which can be very subjective. The Harbeths do have the traditional BBC box form "by design", but anyone who has owned their products will tell you there’s nothing DIY about them. The cabinets are very well put together and look refined in person. Granted the boxy look is not very attractive to many but the fit and finish on the speakers is top notch. Having said that, I will be the first to admit that at $20K+ retail for 40.x, Harbeth could do much better in this department.

I’ve seen and heard the X3’s in person. Not sure what’s "science fiction" worthy about them. They are a good looking speaker with decent fit and finish but nothing extraordinary. Maybe I missed some science fiction aspect of the design?

Bottom Line : The people on this forum that own the X-3’s love them....The people that don’t own them are the ones that are trashing them. Buy a pair you cheapskates...listen to them....put 500 hrs. on them...Then if you bash them , you Might Have some Credibility! Until that happens, YOU DON’T. Roger, Over and Out .

If that's your thing. The X-3's are science fiction worthy baby!
