The Speakers: 

The Q Acoustics 3020i are versatile and easy to place bookshelf speakers. Suitable in a 2 ch hifi set-up or part of your home theatre system. 

The 3020i builds on the success of its multi award winning predecessor. Boasting 125mm /5 inch and 22mm /0.9 inch precision drivers, the Q 3020i speakers deliver deep bass and fill your room with sound. Maintaining the same acoustically optimal front profile, but now created slightly taller and deeper, increasing the overall cabinet size by 25%. This increased internal volume has enabled the Q 3020i to gain an extended low frequency response from the ported design, more-than-ever the smaller enclosures belie their diminutive stature with seriously large-scale sound. The Q 3020i speakers can be shelf-mounted on compliant, pre-fitted rubber feet, stand-mounted or wall-mounted on optional, dedicated stands and brackets. Which ensures the Q 3020i will fit seamlessly into your life and fill your chosen listening room with bold, beautiful sound.
