Q Acoustics 3010i Bookshelf Speakers
The Q Acoustics 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
Key Features of Q Acoustics 3010i Bookshelf Speakers
- Slim-line & versatile design to shelf or stand mount to fit seamlessly into your chosen listening room
- 25% larger cabinet than its predecessor, delivering a larger scale sound and deeper bass
- P2P™ bracing – helps keep the enclosure extra quiet through computer-aided placement of internal bracing
- Uses a 22mm decoupled High Frequency Driver with wide surround, creating a wide, even dispersion of the stereo image
- Low Profile Terminals – recessed cut-out reduces cabinet noise and allows them to be in close proximity to rear walls
- New low-profile binding posts have been incorporated with sockets deep enough to accept 4mm (0.16 in) Banana Plugs
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, the crossover has been revised to take advantage of a larger cabinet volume, enhancing 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 is slightly taller and 25% deeper than previous models. This increased internal volume has enabled Q Acoustics to achieve 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, greatly improving the structural integrity of 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 are used rather than spades or bare wires.

Danish Sood –
Great small bookshelf speakers for music where midrange is more important than bass. Great overall sound for its size. Using this with Norge 2060 amp.
Nilan Shetty –
Nicely made, excellent sound quality with surprisingly good bass for its size. The rear ported so works well close to the wall . Excellent little speaker.
Harish Advani –
I get a great stereo effect from these two small babies. The bass is also good, and I read somewhere, that this is because of a cabinet size upgrade from the last version. Kya baat hai.
