OPEN SOUNDSTAGE FROM SLIM-LINE SPEAKER

The focus of any great loudspeaker is to produce an open, ‘being there’ sound and the Q 3010i does just that despite its compact size. Boasting room-filling sound with its 100mm (4 in) and 22mm (0.9 in) precision drivers, focussing on the power-to-size ratio, the crossover has been revised to take advantage of a larger cabinet volume to enhance sensitivity and bass extension. The Q 3010i speakers can be shelf-mounted on compliant, pre-fitted rubber feet, stand-mounted or wall-mounted on optional, dedicated stands and brackets.

INCREASED CABINET SIZE DELIVERING A BOLDER SOUND

The 3010i maintains the same acoustically optimal front profile, but has been made slightly taller and 25% deeper than previous models. This increased internal volume has enabled Q Acoustics to gain an extended low-frequency response from the ported design so that more than ever the smaller enclosures in the range belie their diminutive stature with an impressively large-scale sound. As an added benefit, the enlarged front-to-back dimension means that any cone-generated noise reflected from the back wall of the enclosure and out through the cone itself is reduced.

NEW LOW PROFILE BINDING POSTS
Conventional terminal panel cut-outs have been removed, giving greatly improved structural integrity to the enclosures, and new low profile binding posts have been incorporated with sockets deep enough to accept 4mm (0.16 in) Banana Plugs. The speaker can be positioned very close to a rear wall even when banana plugs rather than spades or bare wires are used.

BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT
Not only does the entire 3000i range feature all new enclosure aesthetics but it also offers 4 new contemporary finishes. The new 3000i series speakers are available in four standard finishes; Graphite Grey, English Walnut, Carbon Black, or Arctic White. All are finished with an attractive chrome bezel around each driver and feature magnetic speaker grilles.
