• Borresen BM3 Bass

    Overview – The Borresen BM3 Bass, released in 2023, is a reference-grade active bass module engineered to extend low-frequency performance and seamlessly integrate with compatible Børresen loudspeaker systems for greater scale and authority.

     

    Advanced Bass Technology – Utilizing Borresen’s proprietary iron-free magnetic motor technology and long-throw bass drivers, the Børresen BM3 Bass delivers exceptionally fast, controlled, and distortion-free low-frequency reproduction.

     

    Seamless System Integration – The Børresen BM3 Bass is designed to complement compatible Børresen loudspeakers, enhancing bass extension, dynamic headroom, and overall soundstage without compromising speed, coherence, or tonal balance.

     

    Unique Crossover Topology

    The Børresen Bass Module features a fully analog low-pass crossover derived directly from advanced Aavik amplifier designs. Unlike conventional subwoofers that rely on DSP-based filtering, this analog topology avoids signal delay and preserves timing accuracy. The crossover allows precise selection of cut-off frequencies between 30–80 Hz with a fixed 24 dB/octave slope, ensuring a natural and seamless transition. Fine level adjustment in 0.25 dB steps enables exact bass integration, while the internal crossover can be bypassed when using compatible Aavik electronics.

     

    Advanced Noise Rejection

    Noise rejection is fundamental to the performance of the Børresen Bass Module. Acoustic, electrical, and airborne noise are addressed through a comprehensive system of technologies developed across Audio Group Denmark. Active Tesla coils and active square Tesla coils suppress voltage spikes through counter-phase cancellation, dramatically lowering the noise floor. Analog Dither Technology amplifies the music signal while reducing background noise within the crossover circuits. Anti-Aerial Resonance Coil technology prevents RF interference from entering the signal path by absorbing and eliminating airborne noise. Together, these technologies create a purer, quieter environment where musical detail, clarity, and spatial definition can fully emerge.
