Q Acoustics 3010i Bookshelf Speaker in Carbon Black - QA3516 CB

The Q 3010i is a slim-line bookshelf or stand mount speaker from Q Acoustics core loudspeaker offering, designed to deliver beautiful sound into your home, from a compact cabinet design.

Slim-line & versatile design to shelf or stand mount to fit seamlessly into your chosen listening room with a 25% larger cabinet than its predecessor delivering a larger scale sound and deeper bass. The P2P™ technology helps keep the enclosure extra quiet through computer aided placement of internal bracing.

Utilizing a 22mm decoupled High Frequency Driver with wide surround creating a wide even dispersion of stereo image and low profile terminals – recessed cut-out reduces cabinet noise and allows close proximity to rear walls.

Open Soundstage From Slim-Line Speaker

The focus of any great loudspeaker is to produce an open, ‘being there’ sound and the Q 3010i do just that despite their compact size. Boasting room-filling sound with its 100mm (4 in) and 22mm (0.9 in) precision drivers, focussing on 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.

"Whether you’re looking to put together a Hi-Fi system on a budget or simply don’t have room for larger stand-mount or floor-standing speakers, the 3010i are unlikely to disappoint. These compact bookshelf speakers pack more sound per pound than you have any right to expect for the money."

"The 3010i are incredibly sturdy and look great, sound superb and cost relative peanuts...Despite the compact size there's a richness to the sound and a fullness to the bass I wasn't expecting...Stunning"

"Exemplary budget bookshelf speakers for smaller living spaces"

"The 3010i system is impressive all-round, from styling to surround delivery."

Increased Cabinet Size Delivering A Bolder Sound

The 3010i maintain the same acoustically optimal front profile, but have 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 Both Inside And Out

Not only does the entire 3000i range features all new enclosure aesthetics but it also offers 4 new contemporary finishes. The new 3010i speakers are available in the four standard finishes of Graphite Grey, English Walnut, Carbon Black or Arctic White. All are highlighted with an attractive chrome bezel around each driver and feature magnetic speaker grilles.
