I just ordered my active 200 speaker.
I hope to be surprised !!
Q acoustics is taking the industry in a storm!
Love em!
I was on the verge of buying the new Kef LS50 Wireless 2's.... I might have to wait just a little bit more :-D
I'm addicted to speakers
...Same here
Audioholics Anonymous here...
Lol
Me too
Yeah ik
Super!!!
When I thought Yopple makes really "imeizing" products, I would buy something like these. But thanks to Cook I've started to appreciate real values.
Kinda wish they made the 30xx series into active speakers, they just have an unmatched clean and understand aesthetic.
This is amazing!!
looks like in awesome product.
Magnifiques !
yes..i'm listening to all those beautiful words without the mentioned speaker even make a sounds....
Nice design and ideas. Do the hub can deal with DSD or MQA?
Will you be bringing out a non active set of these speakers ? I hope so has I used to have your old q-AV set up sound bar ,and that sounded amazing the rear speakers also used the same technology and the combination was fantastic
Hi, thanks for your question. Sadly not, this product has been designed and built from the ground up to be our perfect active speaker system.
I'm intrigued
is there a way to use them without bluetooth? Also, how much will the floorstanding version be?
Can the system be expanded with more speakers or is it just stereo?
Really great nice for digital sound. Digitizing an analog turntable signal to send it to an active loudspeaker via wifi is something I personally consider blasphemy
Might not feel right but surely most of the analogue charm happens at the turntable? The job of an integrated amp is to be as transparent as possible unless you are in to tube preamps. Digital achieves this transparency
I kinda like active speakers, but hiding those power cables are not that easy, especially good cables are quite thick.
I'd like to know how they compare to the Concept 300.
Really nice design! Reminds me of the Sonos Sub. The system looks similar to the that of System Audio and Buchardt with their WiSa hub. Does this also use WiSa technology? What about pricing? And does it have EQ and room correction on board?
Thanks for your questions. We are not currently part of the WiSA Trade Organisation. Pricing starts at GBP1,499 for the stand-mount Q Active 200 and there is comprehensive speaker location equalisation is on board.
@@QacousticsCoUk I hope you plan to add WiSA support in future update. That would be perfect for a home theater system as more and more TV will including it. Also add 3.1 (LCR and Sub) or 5.1 support too.
Live music demo please.
Do we need a subwoofer for this system or the inbuilt sub is good enough for movies?
The answer for subwoofers is almost always "it depends". Floor standing speakers tend to produce good enough bass for vocals and instrumental music (i.e. a bass guitar or double bass instrument generally produces few frequencies below 40Hz) but will not be good enough for bass heavy electronic music where you can more often have deep bass frequencies. Movies it really depends on your preference, if you really want bass that you rattles the ice cubes in your drink you'll probably want discreet subs. Basically subs are needed if: 1) your floor standers aren't very good at bass 2) you want very low
I have music file on may NAS, can it play direct conect my nas? Can it play dsd file?
Q Auqistic speakers Are made where (Country) ? Are they available in India 🇮🇳?
Hi, yes they will be available in India, the local price is INR 249,900
Not enough thumbs up buttons.
I just want to hear the 'magic' speakers that marketing people insist on filming in rooms that seem to have been purpose-built to give listeners the absolute worst possible experience. I guess a treated listening room doesnt fit the narrative, and I see a lot of claims re DSP addressing room modes but I've yet to hear this magic for myself. For all I know, these are indeed the speakers I seek but having someone from Q Acoustics tell me that the sound is spectacular doesnt loosen the tight grip I need to maintain on my wallet in these troubled times.
Looks promising, I wonder how the two small drivers are going to work out on the high frequency
Hi, BMR drivers can operate over a very wide bandwidth, up to and beyond the high frequency limits of human hearing. In this implementation the upper driver deals with almost the full bandwidth from 150Hz to 20KHz. It is augmented by the lower BMR driver from the mid-range down and then the rear-mounted subwoofer takes over below 150Hz.
Yes but not to the low frequency. 4.5 inch subwoofer? Hahaha.
@@thomasschafer7268 might be a 4,5inch longthrow, but it reaches down to 47Hz wich is low enough for a bookshelf this size and their air-flow is done nicely
@@viincentfonkert2870 d
@@thomasschafer7268 you a speaker engineer?
is there any way to get a set of ACTIVE speakers configured in a dolby atmos 5.1.2?
Hi, this has been designed to be a stereo product.
@@QacousticsCoUk fair enough is there any way of getting active monitors into a 5.1 or is it just a different methodology?
Simon Cross I guess if you use active speakers that can run in singles like most studio monitors, then all you have to do is run wire from a receiver to them.
I don’t know about if you wanted to wirelessly transmit the audio however
I wonder if those 280 and 440 watts are continuous or peak.
Hello, they are peak powers. Continuous power for Q 200 bookshelf model is 100W. Q 400 continues power is to be confirmed. Thank you.
@@QacousticsCoUk Then they are not "280 watt" or "440 watt" speakers.
Peak power ratings are deceptive.
where can I sample them in London?
this needs an answer pronto!
Id be very interested in that streamer box as a standalone if it had analog or digital out (without the connectivity to the active speakers) for my existing setup (to connect to my amp/receiver) with my 3030’s
Man thats an instant “take my money”!
I'm using Q3020i speakers paired with a music server running squeeze server 8 on a raspberry pi 4. Awesome sound at 25% of the cost of these. If you already have speakers the server costs about $200 to build. Check out the pi core project or Max2play online.
What material are the drivers made of ?
Hi Mihir,
The BMR are a lightweight honeycomb construction using a mixture of polymers and paper. The subwoofer drivers are a cast aluminum basket with paper cone.
When are these available to buy? Any prices?
Hi, they should be available in early November - please register on www.qacoustics.co.uk/activerange (UK) or www.qacoustics.com/q-active-speaker.html (US) an we will e-mail you as soon as they are available. The pricing is £1499 / $1999 / €1999
Does it have Bluetooth connectivity?
Yes it does
In the video the ones with two subs in you say 480 watts is that the pair or each.
Dwa wzmacniacze w klasie d i trzy odbiorniki nadajniki bluetooth malutkie głośniki nie są w stanie przekazać całego pasam szczególnie jeśli chodzi dół zarbisty sprzęt by słuchać kiepskich MP3 z Spotify
It sound good. But it seems it miss wisa compatibility to be perfect ... 😞
Q 400 looks like a fridge = weird = not good. Congrats to the choice of BMR drivers. Choice of Class D is a downer...
4,5 inch subs? 🤔
right?
Frequency Response 46Hz to 20kHz (-6dB)
lol
What turntable is that one?
Hi Marc, the turntable is a Rega Planer 8.
Hdcp 2.2 ?
Q acoustic need to try answering there emails and telephone calls!!!
These are using almost exactly the same technology as My Cambridge Audio Min 22 drivers. I thought BMR is patented trademark of Cambridge Audio.
Hi, we've have many years of experience working with BMR drivers, including in our M2 soundbase and M3 and M4 soundbars :)
@@QacousticsCoUk If they have wider sound area instead of a "Sweet Spot" why dont you build all your speakers with BMR?
@@sukruyildizel422 Hi, BMR driver technology is particularly well suited to Active or Powered speakers. These are our first Active speakers but we have used it in many powered products over the last 10 years.
@@QacousticsCoUk Thanks for the answer.Will we have chance to listen to these speakers in Richer Sounds in UK when they are out?
I didn’t know anyone trademarked “BMR”. You can buy such drivers by themselves and there’s diy speakers with them. You could even build a knockoff passive version of this Q acoustics using them and a small high excursion driver :)
Or stick the Cambridge minis on top of a sub
As a Loudspeaker design house.
I wonder at the point of a loudspeaker that is indeed signal "Wireless" with all it's onboard DSP etc.
That you still need to "Plug in" to a power supply.
Sure onboard has it's advantages of shorter load connections & discrete drive of the transducers
But "Wireless"??? It needs a power source all the same.
I think this is using misleading language to ensnare buyers.
Or do you have to recharge them?
Makes no mention of how they are powered at all.
Nope just bandy about the "Wireless" bit.
I am currently working on a no nonsense type that has also a "Magic box" for all kinds of media feed. But it comes as a loudspeaker with DSP & "Multielement drive"
But it receives a balanced audio signal from said "Box" is necessary to power it from a source of mains.
But also will be available as a remote amp fed & a standalone.
This is technology for it's own sake.
So it looks like a Star Wars droid. Or is that just me seeing that.
Jony Ive is looking a little rough these days
Too bad, it loos like an AC column..
Hhhmmm. This is a very unexpected driver choice/ arrangement.... Is this focused on minimising the cabinet size? I just hope the sound quality matches the brands standards.
Hi, thank you for your question. The choice of BMR drivers was more about getting that special wide dispersion sound and not having a crossover in a critical area of the audio band. They are particularly suited to being in an active speaker, we have many years of experience designing with them and we’re sure you won’t be disappointed by the sound quality.
@@QacousticsCoUk Is this an OEM BMR driver? Did you do any modification to it?
sugar is a good thing and if u have to much u get diabetes soooo
Bose
Looks like a fridge... Sorry
Looks fine to me. The target market probably doesn’t mind if it doesn’t look like your typical HiFi speaker
@@RennieAsh it doesn't have to look typical. But I don't want to put fridges in my living room lol
'...... when you think about loud speakers, you don't really expect the unexpected'
I mean, what sort of marketing mumbo-jumbo nonsense is that. By definition, you CAN'T 'expect the unexpected'.
Why are you shaking too much while briefing? It's annoying...
Radiators are by far the best way to achieve 180 degree "presentations"? No, that would be using speakers facing opposite directions. Radiators are for low frequencies only as they replace reflex ports, which makes them useless for higher frequencies (voice for ex). Nothing there is revolutionary, all that technology can be found in existing speakers, and with 2x 4.5" bass drivers the thing wont be shaking any windows too much. No mentioning of any dac or sampleing processor, which matter far higher than almost all the other stuff. iMac of audio, all that stuff can be put together for $250, but youre charging how much? $1000....$2000? Yeah nah not really 10x
Not for true audiophiles however they might be worth a second system or third :-)
