Kii THREE BXT

Trust Your Process, Trust Your Tech

Turn Accuracy Into Authority

The THREE/BXT system is a studio-grade full-range reference that brings main-monitor scale to any space — without sacrificing precision. Sixteen additional woofers form a vertical line array that shapes and controls the low end, focusing energy where it counts and minimizing floor and ceiling reflections. With over 7,000 watts per stereo pair, you get massive headroom, unshakable control, and the authority to work confidently on any project.

Advanced Control for the Critical Low End

The BXT integrates seamlessly with the THREE, sharing the same DSP brain for perfect time alignment and phase coherence. The cardioid dispersion from the THREE combines with the BXT’s line array effect to deliver bass that’s as accurate as it is powerful, even in challenging acoustic environments.

For Projects That Deserve the Best

From mastering orchestral recordings to producing bass-driven electronic tracks, the THREE/BXT gives you a full-bandwidth, high-SPL monitoring solution with zero compromise on detail or accuracy. It’s the clarity and control you need to make decisions fast — and know they’ll hold up anywhere.

Kii THREE + BXT Review

THE PERFECT TEAM

KII THREE SYSTEM

The Kii CONTROL turns the Kii THREE into a complete playback system of highest sonic quality and usability. It offers a user interface for your speakers and works like a digital preamplifier.

Only connect your analog source, CD player/drive, server, streamer, TV set or set top box to enjoy a breathtakingly audiophile full range system in a stunningly small footprint.

The Kii CONTROL offers three additional digital inputs for the Kii THREE: Coax SPDIF, Optical TOSLINK and USB (up to LPCM 24/384kHz or DSD64/128 on USB).

Kii CONTROL

All inputs are located on the backside connector panel and can be activated with the touch buttons located around the volume knob. A dedicated input button (labeled XLR) will switch to the existing hardware input on the speaker itself, which you can continue to use as analog or digital input. The Kii Control connects with a single included CAT6 cable and is also powered through this connection. No additional power supply is necessary. Most importantly the Kii CONTROL enables lossless volume control inside the DSP of the Kii THREEs, keeping the signal path of the system as transparent as possible. The big volume knob also offers mute or dim functions and manual power on/off (standby). A dedicated touch button provides direct access to up to six user definable presets. The menu navigation and OLED display vastly expand the options of the Boundary and Contour settings, while also providing access to more advanced system settings, including amongst others for example manual power on/standby, LED brightness, DIM function and limiter indication. The main functions like volume, source and mute can be remote controlled via your IR Remote (RC5 type or Apple Remote).

Only connect your analog source, CD player/drive, server, streamer, TV set or set top box to enjoy a breathtakingly audiophile full range system in a stunningly small footprint.

The Kii CONTROL offers three additional digital inputs for the Kii THREE: Coax SPDIF, Optical TOSLINK and USB (up to LPCM 24/384kHz or DSD64/128 on USB).

TRUSTED BY THE EARS THAT SHAPE THE HITS

Video Statement

At Home In Any Room

Hidden behind the beauty of the Kii THREE is a fantastic speaker that is small enough to fit easily into modern living spaces. It doesn’t take over your habitat like a huge old audiophile setup; there are no racks, no big towers, no cables to trip over. Instead, there’s intelligence! The clarity and detail, the impressive time coherence, and, most importantly, the handling of room acoustics let the listener dive right into the magical experience of an excellent record, more so than even the best conventional setups can.

All the innovations inside this speaker serve a single purpose: to be more true to the music. Kii brings more music into your life. Let’s face it: buying a second system for daily use because the “big” system is too impractical for background listening was never a solution. Even the best Hi-Fi set should be easy and intuitive to use for anyone in the house. Whenever there’s music on your mind, there should be great music in your home.

The BXT is an extension module that turns the Kii THREE into a veritable floor-standing loudspeaker with 16 additional drivers. The Kii THREE BXT System is absolutely unique as it combines a line source with horizontal directivity control! The BXT makes full use of the Kii THREEs technology, adding a wider frequency range and increased SPL to the game while still being a cardioid system that, despite its size, does not interact with the room. Astoundingly enough, small rooms benefit significantly from the line source concept.

the Kii Difference

What Makes Kii Audio
Truly Unique

Founded in 2015 by acclaimed audio engineer Bruno Putzeys, Kii Audio has quickly become renowned for tackling long-standing challenges in speaker design. At its core lies a revolutionary Active Wave Focusing technology, which employs DSP-driven cardioid dispersion. This innovation allows compact speakers, like the Kii SEVEN, to deliver sound with grand-system clarity while minimizing unwanted room reflections—dramatically enhancing timing, bass precision, and spatial fidelity. What’s more, each Kii THREE BXT packs 3500 watts of Class D amplification across fourteen drivers (front, side, and back), achieving a level of performance and detail often associated with much larger systems.

A Legacy of Innovation:

Disruption and
Decades-Long Innovation

Kii Audio is widely seen as a disruptive force in a traditionally conservative audio market. As noted by What Hi‑Fi?, “True innovation seems to be a rare quality in speaker design… But not at Kii.” Their approach not only overcomes typical acoustic compromises but also introduces entirely new paradigms for directivity and listener experience. With a steadfast commitment since 2015 to advancing both hardware and software—encompassing compact cardioid speakers and the newly unveiled Kii Seven wireless music system, complete with multi‑room smart control—the company demonstrates a decade‑long dedication to innovation and pushing boundaries.

Between their bold engineering breakthroughs, professional-grade performance in a refined form, and long-term devotion to innovation, Kii Audio stands out as a genuinely transformative presence in the audio landscape.

Kii THREE + BXT Review

From time to time over the years, manufacturers have emerged that offered active loudspeakers in their lineup, and in recent years, advances in digital technology have led to major strides in active designs. How far has development come today, and might it be time for active loudspeakers to make a serious entrance into the home theater world

We take a look at what can be considered the state of the art today and test how the Kii Three, paired with the BXT bass modules, performs.

Combined Expertise Our sister magazine, Hifi & Musik, previously tested the Kii Three (without the BXT modules) and gave it very high marks. In fact, the Kii Three is now used in many music studios around the world, and after this test, I fully understand why.

Kii is a relatively new company, founded in 2014, yet the collective knowledge within the firm—particularly in Class-D amplification and digital technology—represents many years of combined experience. On and off over the years, Bruno Putzeys, who is responsible for, among other things, the UcD and Ncore Class-D amplifiers that have made a significant impact in the high-end segment, has been one of the founders. Together with Bart van der Laan’s expertise in embedded software and digital signal processing, they have made great technical leaps in a short period.

Add to this deep proficiency in professional audio—several employees have a background as musicians—and it’s clear that the focus has primarily been on the pro market. At the same time, there is also significant interest in the hi-fi world.

Kii Three + BXT The Kii Three was introduced to the Swedish market a few years ago, and in 2024, an updated version was released featuring completely new Class-D amplifiers from Purifi. That is the model we are testing here.

We unpack the beautifully designed Kii Three speakers, which feel remarkably heavy when lifting them out of their packaging. Each weighs about 15 kg, and if you add the BXT module with its stand, that’s another 36 kg. Considering all electronics are built into the speaker, the construction can still be viewed as “light.” The build quality feels consistently high throughout—from the connectors to the finish of the cabinets, which in this test version are painted in a graphite gray color. It projects a discreet yet exclusive impression, as one would expect when dealing with equipment in the 400,000 SEK range.
