Borresen X3."Hi Fi" or High End as in natural realistic sound ?


Seeing much praise for the X3 spiked my interest so was able to listen very briefly and was impressed but wondering if long term their "hifiness" (?)  as described elsewhere on this forum can wear thin overtime and become too much. FWIW they were being driven with an Accuphase E5000 integrated and from what I remember Ansuz D2 cabling.Note * without optional Ansuz Darkz.

Any feedback from those who have heard them extensively over time is greatly appreciated.

The X series is a  bit of a chameleon and appears to be rather drastically tailorable with different electronics for your individual taste. 

 

Maybe it’s not even the speakers, and instead the lower line of Aavik electronics they are typically paired with, or both. It’s a personal taste and opinion, and I’m not stating it as fact.

It’s not the speaker dude, it’s that AGDenmark front end ( i did get a taste of the Axxess box and the Aavik Class D naked emperor before i sent them back. Such is the nature of Class D naked emperors everywhere). Their streamers/dacs are good, stay away from those amps.

My X6 sounds juicy and chocolatey with other non-Class D electronics from other manufacturers.
