Borresen X3 measurements

@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.

Borrensen’s marketing(trickle-down theory) has convinced(brainwashed) many that the X3 shares many sonic virtues and quality of the upper level Borrensen loudspeakers which is not true. It’s unclear where the X3 is assembled, where the cabinets and even the drivers are manufactured. This type of ambiguity should not exist at this price point if a company desires transparency and respect.

I guess Perlisten is looking a bit better now. :)

Im sure the Borresens are fine speakers too. It’s too subjective to take anyone’s word for it. It’s different from other audio equipment. I think measuring things is important, but speakers are so personal I think it’s less indicative of how a person will feel about the sound. People aren’t necessarily wanting perfect accuracy/neutrality from a speaker. 

I am in as soon as they plug that hole in the midrange.
