British audio equipment manufacturer Q Acoustics has announced the release of its latest flagship floorstanding speakers, the Q Acoustics 5050. This unveiling comes as part of the company's renowned 5000 loudspeaker range, designed to cater to both stereo enthusiasts and home cinema aficionados.
The Q Acoustics 5050 floorstanding speakers boast an array of features aimed at enhancing audio performance and user experience. At the heart of these speakers lies the innovative C3 Continuous Curved Cone design, derived from Q Acoustics' top-tier Concept series.
This design innovation promises smoother high-frequency integration with the tweeter and superior bass dynamics, setting a new standard in audio quality within the 5000 series.
One of the key advancements in the 5050 floorstanding speakers is the implementation of the C3 Continuous Curved Cone profile in the mid/bass drivers. This design optimization, coupled with substantial magnets and large voice coils, results in a 50% increase in power handling and control over comparable drivers, thus enhancing the dynamic range, especially in the bass frequencies.
Moreover, the cabinet design of the Q Acoustics 5050 draws inspiration from the company's flagship Concept range, incorporating features such as hermetically sealed tweeters and Helmholtz Pressure Equalizers (HPE) tubes. These elements contribute to reducing harmonic distortion and unwanted standing waves, thereby delivering a wide soundstage and impeccable sonic performance.
In terms of aesthetics and functionality, the Q Acoustics 5050 floorstanding speakers feature a minimalist design with laminated baffle fronts and a choice of four finishes: Satin Black, Satin White, Santos Rosewood, and Holme Oak. Solid aluminum stabilizers with top adjustable spikes ensure stability and anti-resonance, while low-profile speaker terminals maintain a tidy appearance and enable flexible placement options.
Technical Specifications:
The new Q Acoustics speakers are poised to set a new benchmark for audio excellence within the Q Acoustics product lineup, offering audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts a premium listening experience.
The Q Acoustics 5050 floorstanding speakers are now available for purchase in the UK through the Q Acoustics website and selected retailers. In the US, they can be pre-ordered from the company's official website and at Amazon with a price tag of $1,999 per pair.
