X3 is damn impressive loudspeakers and one won't get close to understand how good they sound from here. They play like they cost 2 times the amount asked for, they are that good. When I heard their top of the line speakers, I knew it was the best sound I had ever heard, and ive heard most after 12 years visiting Munich High End in a row..they are just REAL sounding. These X3 will have traits of that perfect sound. X3 IS a steal
Jaysaudiolab did a video where he listened to these and said they "easily outperform the Sopra 3's" It's already quite common to hear about the huge value of the X range, and I think the general consensus is that these are performing more like 25-30k USD floorstanders.
"Now, I’m not suggesting that with a retail of $11,000 that the X3 is readily affordable to the typical music lover. But this IS a very competitive price range, one that includes some well-regarded loudspeakers such as the Audio Solutions Figaro L, the Audiovector R3 Arreté, the Crystal Cable Arabesque Minissimo, the Focal Kanta No. 2 or Sopra No. 1, the GoldenEar Technology Triton Reference, the Legacy Audio Focus SE, the MartinLogan Impression ESL 11A, the MBL 126, the Sonus faber Olympica Nova III or Maxima Amator, and the Vandersteen Treo CT, to name just a few. Yet when compared to any of these other fine-performing loudspeakers, one is simply forced to acknowledge the X3’s outstanding accomplishments." Thats an excerpt from the parttimeaudiophile review too
Almost impossible to tell by this video alone, but the sound seemed to be a little too mellowed out from my liking, using the tube amp. Of course that’s just personal preference, but it seem to lose a little bit of the vibrant detail in the mid range and highs
This system is in my bedroom, so I want it to be very relaxing. Try listening to my other system. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OFmqO_wQ9Cs.htmlsi=LjJ7DGc6JnCh1AIR
