Borresen X3."Hi Fi" or High End as in natural realistic sound ?


Seeing much praise for the X3 spiked my interest so was able to listen very briefly and was impressed but wondering if long term their "hifiness" (?)  as described elsewhere on this forum can wear thin overtime and become too much. FWIW they were being driven with an Accuphase E5000 integrated and from what I remember Ansuz D2 cabling.Note * without optional Ansuz Darkz.

Any feedback from those who have heard them extensively over time is greatly appreciated.

I heard both the X3 and the X6 at Capital Audiofest with the intention of buying either one. They sounded wow for the first 2 min, but I could not relax and listen long term. Different with Joseph Audio or Gershman or Schweikert. 
For me nice, but not for long listening sessions. I ended up with Rockport in the end.
