Borresen X3 at Axpona


I listened to these speakers at Axpona and thought they were amazing for the price..Very open,forward midrange. Any opinions out there on these? We listened to Jonny Cash and his voice was incredible.l would highly consider buying a pair of these for 11K

@audiotroy while you may believe that Michael Borrenson is a genius in creating advanced drivers, even he cannot ignore basic physics laws.

Very true!

The Borresen X3 speaker is three way crossover points are 125Hz and 2.5KHz.

@ditusa While there are two crossover points, the low crossover in the Borresen just denotes where the bass driver(s) starts to roll off into the mids. The midrange tends to perform at the full range until the high frequency crossover point, so that makes it a 2.5-way.

To my knowledge, if a speaker has one crossover point, it's a two way speaker; two crossover points, it's a three way speaker; three crossover points, it's a four way speaker; four crossover points, it's a five way speaker. Could you please explain how a speaker with two crossover points, becomes a 2.5 way speaker? 😎
