The C3 is a floorstanding loudspeaker from Børresen Acoustics, sitting above the C2 with an exceptionally deep bass extension and considerably greater mass. The C3 represents Børresen's more accomplished current statement within the C-series floorstanding catalogue.

Key specs that matter

Rated response spans an exceptionally deep 25Hz to 50,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - deeper than the C2's 35Hz. Sensitivity is notably high at 88dB into a comparatively benign 6 ohm load, matching the C2. Recommended amplifier power specified as greater than 50W, also matching. At 141.5 x 38 x 56cm and 68kg, the C3 represents a considerably more substantial commitment than the C2.

Sound and use context

Expect the exceptionally fast, detailed character Børresen's celebrated ribbon-tweeter technology is broadly known for with the exceptional 25Hz bass extension combined with the considerable 68kg mass representing Børresen's more accomplished current C-series engineering.

Pairing

The comparatively benign 6 ohm impedance and notably high 88dB sensitivity suit a broad selection of amplifiers.

Alternatives

Børresen's own C2 offers a more accessible alternative within the same broader C-series floorstanding catalogue.
