Swissonic X8

[nickdino]

Hi everyone, i have the swissonic x8, 3-way studio monitors from thomann musicstore, they were 530 euro for a pair. I’m also considering adding a subwoofer later.
I’m wondering if i could get something better for this price level, but there isn’t alot of info or tests on these. Could anyone share their experience? Where do you rank these as monitors?

Their measurements don't look bad, would be interesting to compare them against their direct competitors Kali IN-8 v2 and KRK RP10-3 G4.

Swissonic A305

A new 3-way with FIR crossover and rotatable mid-tweeter unit, hope to see some measurements and comments from @KLang1 soon. https://www.thomann.de/intl/swissonic_x8.htm

How are you getting on with these?
Certainly very impressive looking and on paper for a modest outlay. I'd be half tempted to buy a pair as emergency stand by's in case they were ever needed. It's pretty amazing to think they can be the price they are.
