Q Acoustics has launched its latest floorstanding loudspeaker<\/a>: the 3040c. According to the company, this newest entry into the 3000c loudspeaker series was designed from community feedback citing a strong demand for a \u201cmore compact and agile floorstanding speaker at an accessible price point.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inside the 3040c Floorstanding Speaker \"Q<\/a><\/p>\n

The Pink Oak finish on the 3040c.<\/p>\n

Like its 3000c family members, the 3040c boasts Q Acoustics\u2019 C3 core driver platform, which, according to Q Acoustics, combines the bass response of a traditional straight conic cone with the midrange clarity and high-frequency control of a flared cone. The 3040c sports twin 4.75-inch versions of these drivers.<\/p>\n

The tweeter, meanwhile, features a \u201cfloating\u201d design inspired by Q\u2019s flagship Concept series. The tweeter is hermetically sealed and mechanically isolated from the baffle, which according to Q, reduces internal pressure and vibrations from coloring high frequencies. Combined with a vented inner chamber, the design is meant to achieve ultra-low distortion.<\/p>\n

Point to Point bracing is fitted to internal areas of the cabinet prone to low-end frequency vibrations, helping deliver a more focused stereo image and a wider, better-controlled soundstage.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Helmholtz Pressure Equalizer tubes are fitted inside the cabinet to nullify internal pressure and improve frequency response.<\/p>\n

Design and Finishes \"Q<\/a><\/p>\n

The Claro Walnut finish on the 3040c.<\/p>\n

The 3040c leans into a more industrial, minimalist design, featuring no visible joints or bolts and fronted by a one-piece satin nickel and satin chrome (white mode) driver trim. Four sophisticated finishes are available in Satin Black, Satin White, Pink Oak and Claro Walnut.<\/p>\n

Like its bigger brother, the 3050c, the 3040c also features a solid aluminum stabilizer design, with top-adjustable spikes for levelling. Additionally, the entire range inherits the 5000 series\u2019 low-profile terminal panel, complete with recessed binding posts that allow for neat, close-to-wall placement.<\/p>\n
