Product Overview & Specifications
The Børresen X2 floorstanding loudspeaker delivers precise, transparent audio performance in a compact, two-way floorstanding enclosure. Designed as an entry point to Børresen's high-end speaker lineup, it incorporates technologies carried over from their reference models, featuring a reinforced wood-composite cabinet with internal bracing, a rear-facing bass reflex port, and a separately vented tweeter chamber to manage air pressure.
The X2's driver array pairs a Børresen RP89 ultralight planar ribbon tweeter with two 4.5-inch Børresen DCC5 drivers—one handling bass/midrange and one dedicated to bass. The dynamic drivers feature a composite diaphragm made from spread-tow carbon fiber skins surrounding an aramid honeycomb core, powered by a magnetic motor system with dual copper caps to lower distortion and flatten impedance. A parallel crossover network derived from the Z-series manages frequency distribution for seamless driver integration and phase accuracy.
KEY FEATURES
- Spread-Tow Carbon & Aramid Composite Membranes: Lightweight, ultra-rigid 3-layer sandwich diaphragm engineered to minimize cabinet coloration and unwanted driver resonance.
- Dual Copper-Cap Motor System: Magnetic motor structure with double copper caps to lower inductance, smooth the impedance curve, and improve amplifier compatibility.
- RP89 Planar Ribbon Tweeter: Vented ribbon tweeter with an ultra-low moving mass delivering fast, accurate, and fatigue-free high frequencies up to 50 kHz.
- Z-Series Derived Parallel Crossover: Mechanically stable crossover network using high-quality components to ensure smooth driver integration and balanced frequency response.
- Braced Wood-Composite Cabinet: Compact enclosure constructed with internal bracing, carbon fiber reinforcements, a rear-facing reflex port, and separate tweeter venting for optimized air-pressure control.
