Q Acoustics has today announced the launch of a brand new loudspeaker, the Concept 20.
The Q Acoustics Concept 20 standmount speakers are £350/pair, due to be officially launched at the Bristol Show, and will come in white and black.
A 2-way reflex speaker, the Concept 20s use a 125mm bass driver and a 25mm tweeter. They stand 26cm tall, by 28cm deep and 17cm wide, and weigh 5.6kg.
The company claims to have addressed the fundamental problem of distortion caused by resonance, with a completely new design.
The cabinets incorporate "Gelcore Construction". Described as "a cabinet within a cabinet" and promising ultra-low resonance.
Q Acoustics claims the design means a reduction in radiated power – which in turn leads to colouration – of more than -6dB to midrange frequencies. In the high and low frequencies, the effect is said to be even greater.
