Børresen C3

At the core of the C’s performance is the Børresen 5-inch CC Neo bass/midrange driver, meticulously crafted to deliver superior clarity and dynamics.

The Membrane
Michael Børresen and his team of experts were able to leverage the cutting-edge technology and development process of the Børresen C series membrane. The membrane consists of three laminated layers: two layers of spread-tow carbon fiber with a honeycomb spacer in between. This design provides optimal stiffness, reducing sound-disturbing vibrations and resonances, which leads to exceptional clarity in the bass and midrange frequencies.

The Magnetic Motor System
The C series features a sophisticated magnetic motor system with double copper caps on the pole rings. This design, adapted from higher-end Børresen drivers, minimizes electromagnetic resonance and lowers inductance, easing the load on the amplifier.

The C Series is equipped with Børresen’s renowned RP94 ribbon tweeter, a signature feature of the Børresen brand. With a remarkable efficiency of 94 dB and an ultra-light moving mass of just 0.01 grams, this closed ribbon tweeter is capable of incredible speed and responsiveness. Operating from 2.5 kHz and above, it captures the finest sonic details with precision and is robust enough to handle high transient peaks without distortion. This level of detail and clarity allows listeners to experience music with a level of subtlety and refinement rarely achieved.

The Børresen C Series loudspeakers are built on serial crossover networks, which ensure phase-locked electrical current flow to the transducers within the filtering region. While this crossover topology is significantly more challenging to implement, it effectively diverts out-of-band currents, resulting in a far more coherent and precise filtering system.

The Børresen C series speaker enclosures are constructed from internally reinforced wood composite material, designed to minimize sound distortion, standing waves, and external resonances. This material, combined with 1mm-thick carbon fiber panels applied to the sides, significantly increases the rigidity of the enclosure. Glossy white/black side stripes laid on top of the thick carbon layers allow this material to work at its very best, and greatly contribute to the speaker’s unique aesthetic.
