Q Acoustics 5010 Compact Bookshelf Speakers

Since its inception in 2006, Q Acoustics has earned a reputation for its innovative speaker designs, winning countless awards along the way. The latest 5000 Series continues the trend, taking a high-tech approach to speaker design with the aim of making true audiophile sound more affordable.

Innovative driver technology and hi-tech cabinet design help the compact Q Acoustics 5010 bookshelf speakers to deliver superb sound quality, producing a much bigger soundstage than you would reasonably expect for such a compact design.

Advanced driver design

The 5010's 4.5-inch C3 Continuous Curved Cone™ woofer has a single, smooth profile from its outer surround to its centre. This creates excellent sound dispersion with reduced harmonic distortion and a nicely controlled frequency response that allows for smooth integration with the tweeter. It also helps to keep bass dynamics tighter, giving you more flexibility if you need to place your speakers close to a wall. The high frequency drive unit is hermetically sealed and mechanically isolated (floating) from the front baffle to mitigate internal cabinet pressure and woofer resonances.

Braced for sound

This speaker's rear-ported, solid MDF enclosure features Point to Point™ (P2P) internal bracing based on state-of-the-art, microscopic-level analysis. It allows the cabinet to dampen and dissipate unwanted acoustic energy, giving the drivers a rigid, non-resonant environment in which to operate.

Versatile placement

The 5010’s can be placed on a bookshelf, console unit or any flat surface, ideally at ear level for the best sound quality. The optional 3000FSI floorstands have been designed to place the speakers at the ideal listening height and are available in a black or white finish.

Package includes a Free 3m pair of pre-terminated QED XT25 speaker cables (see below)
