They are the very opposite. But most people aren't used to such precise and fast response, unless some specific live background is going on. I had this issue with Accuton drives years ago. They were so fast by comparison to the usual stuff around, something seemed lacking. Only with measurements were we able to show people that other speakers added various distortions to the sound. But by ear alone, most people would not pick them on the spot.
Sorry, I’m not a fan of Magico. I know that Magico is a world class brand. But their M series disappointed me a lot, mainly because of their lack of organic feeling, which is very important to me. It might has something to do with aluminum resonances, which many people seem to like them, but I don’t. However, these things are always subjective. We can only trust our own ears. 😊👍
They were on my Radar until I heard them recently. They were powered with high end class D amplifier, and the rest, Dac, streamer were high end as well. Well, really not impressed with them. Maybe because, they have just 100 hours so far, but it is not my cup of tea. Give advantage to Marten’s Oscar Trio, or Dynaudio Confidence 30z
This is aways subjective. Burn in period is very crucial. My X3s sounded very different after a month. And yes, they sound very different from Marten and Dynaudio, which Im very familiar with all of them, but at the same price range, Marten and Dynaudio are never in my consideration, although I have a very close relationship with Marten’s importer in my country(with 35-40% discount from the retail prices). May be, Im too used to Borresen speakers, because I own three models of them lol.
@@tanachait1 I was also very interested in Borresen or Raidho. So far I auditioned Borresen: Z1, Z3 and X3. Powered by Aavik electronics: amp, dac, streamer and Ansuz cables. Overall, some $50.000 just in electronics and cables. I wanted to love it, but for some reason didn’t. Not saying they’re bad product, of course, but just not for my taste. As for Marten, those guys make great speakers, but somehow ridiculously price policies. If you want 3 way Marten speaker you must pay $50.000 or so. And then they come with 30-40% discounts, and expect us customers to be extra happy paying left arm and leg for speakers 😊 Borresen X3 comes with really fair price. Regards and no hard feelings, it is hobby and we just share our opinions and experience
Tube amplifier is better with small bands, with a few instruments. A good solid amplifier produces more direct sound, and is better with punchy songs, songs with many instruments.
@@tanachait1 of course I did. More than 30 years in hi-fi. I have tried everything: Class A, A/B, D. They all sound different and have advantages and disadvantages, as per someone’s taste, but saying that tube amps are for small band with limited number of instruments 😊😊. Have you ever listened to some opera or classic music on tube ? Per your opinion, listening to classical music with 100 players, some of the instruments will be lost / hidden ?? C’mon man
Very different sonic characters. PCMs are great in tone, while X3s are great in scale and focus, especially the scale. You have to listen to them by yourself, in order to find out, which ones serve your music taste the best. I would prefer PCM for standard jazz musics, but I would prefer X3s for all round musics.
Nice presentations. X3s are in my radar.
The best value for the money so far. 😊👍
My same combo sounds sooooo much fuller..Beautiful combination...must be the mic.
Recorded with a simple iPhone. 😅
Lol that's what's known as a bottleneck @@tanachait1
Sounds superb to me...
Great demos thank you!
Cool stuff bro!
Thanks!😊
Awesome
Great sounding
Thanks. 😊
You should try Jadis class A integrated on your Borresen speakers, you will be shocked trust me.
I believe you. I’m very familiar with Jadis, from Orchestra to the 500 series. 😊👍
😍😍😍
I have seen several videos of these speakers and I find them always too mellow for my liking
You should find a chance to listen to them for real. They are so far from the term “mellow”. 😊
Mellow? Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
It is not mellow.
Its fast, transparent and dynamic. Not harsh.
@@igaldins Totally agree. 😊

Borresen X3 do sound good, not to sure about the looks?
Very beautiful. Piano gross finishing. And so heavy.
Sweet! Are you happy with those x3’s
Yes. I am. 😊
Please compare Magico A1

What do you gain with the X3 over the X2?
Deeper bass, and bolder and richer mid.
Why do you cover the TV? Thanks.
To cover my reflection lol.
@@tanachait1 Ah okay. I've heard before of people covering the TV for audible reasons. Probably nonsense.
@@turreu No. It’s not nonsense at all. I would never place any glass screen TV in my main listening room.
Hi whats the amplifier name brand. Looks expensive
Not so expensive. Aavik U-150 with internal dac.
@@tanachait1 how much did you buy yours for. I tried searching it up but i think its disconninued
@@RoseLove1412 Yes. This model discontinued. The present model is Aavik U-280 and i-280.
do the tweeter on these sparkle/shimmer? does it have decay?
The tweeters go up to 50KHz.
@@tanachait1 do they decay?
@@666nemeesisThey were made of metal, so I don’t think they will have decay.
May i know how far is your frin fave of X3 from the back wall ?
This pair, it’s about 4 meters. 😅
X3 with tube or solid state amp, which one do you prefer sir?
Tube amplifier is better with small bands, with a few instruments. A good solid amplifier produces more direct sound, and is better with punchy songs, songs with many instruments.
@@tanachait1 thank you
@@tanachait1excuse me, who told you that?? 😂
@@Miami2015No one needs to be told. Did you ever try to hear for yourself?😂😂😂

Borresen x3 vs Pcm twenty5 26i anyone compared it?

@@tanachait1which has the best bass?
@@Edin8140 Certainly, X3.
@@tanachait1 Really appreciate your help. Thanks
