Borresen X3

@letitbe1306 see my comments on your other thread also.  Don’t sleep on Magico.  

I heard the X3’s at a show and I was very impressed.  Michael Borresen is a brilliant designer but his speakers are extremely expensive.  The X3’s are exceptional at their price point.  

Lars knows how to make a show impressive, I’m not an end all measurement freak, but look at how their speakers measure and then consider what kind of music those speakers will take to the next level and what types of music will fall flat? When I read Raidho back when MB and LC were heading the show charged $40-$50k to upgrade their speakers and the price included flying those 2 gents to do the work and hotel them for a night I realized their prices were entry costs for the cigar smoking rich guys club and had nothing to do with music quality. Cryogenically frozen drivers!!! pleeze.

Heard them for about 30 minutes at the Southwest Audio Fest. They were very impressive. Wide and deep soundstage, with  great detail and instrument separation. The detail and wide deep presentation was their strength. I not am sure how I feel about their cosmetic appearance. They look quality built but not my favorite appearance.
