My Borresen X3's took 500 hours to settle in.....They are fantastic and non fatiguing but quick, snappy and detailed. You'd like them.

mbmi...I am pulling for my X2's as there is much to love about them. The bass is just uncanny in its presence and accuracy and the details it reveals in the music make my Sopra 2's sound muddled. However, and I'm not going to make a decision for another couple of weeks, but at the moment the X2's give off tweeter fatigue to my 65-year old ears and especially at higher volumes. Also, the soundstage, which is okay in width, is not near the Sopra 2's in depth and height. If these speakers were chairs the Sopra 2 is a well worn patina leather chair I sink in and the X2 is an excellently designed modernist chair but not the one you want to sit in for hours reading on a rainy day. Now, I will be curious as to what happens when my pair of REL S510's arrive on Tuesday. No need for anyone to respond about not needing subs...I am way past the line where I firmly believe a pair of subs create music that can't be matched without....I'm pulling for the X2's for if the tweeter settles or softens just a bit I will keep them for a long time. And, yes, I know others believe the extra hours are doing nothing for the speakers but only allowing my/our ears to adjust and become normalized. I'm going to take the word of the manufacturer and a dealer I spoke to who said the X's sound better past 100 hours and Borresen speakers further up the price line sound better after 200... |
@poketacez - I’m another QLN P3 owner and fan. I’m curious about your system. What are you using when your QLN speakers? Would welcome knowing your streamer, Dac, preamp, amp and cables. |
@bluethinker you are curious?
