Q Acoustics 3030i bookshelf speaker is the latest addition to the Award-winning Q Acoustics 3000i speaker range. It’s designed to deliver the biggest, most commanding sound ever achieved by a speaker of this type and price. Featuring a 165mm (6.5 inches) mid/bass driver developed from the powerful 3050i floorstander, along with an optimised motor, 3030i has bass extension and control superior to that of any nominal rival. Factor in the same tweeter and mounting as used in the 3050i floorstanding speakers, and 3030i redefines the scale and fidelity available from such a competitively priced stand mounted speakers.

Review: La calidad de sonido es muy buena. Los agudos quedan muy bien definidos. Los graves también, pero he añadido un subwofer que le da más cuerpo a los graves, aunque también es verdad que muchas veces me olvido de enchufarlos, pues no resultan necesarios. Los tengo ya un tiempo y funcionan muy bien. La potencia es de sobra para una vivienda familiar. Si les das caña tendrás problemas con los vecinos. El aspecto es de un producto de gran calidad y no decepcionan.
Review: Sehr gut verarbeitet und sehr guter Klang

## Features

- Powerful Bookshelf Hi-fi Speakers: Immerse yourself in music with 3030i bookshelf speakers. A bigger cabinet creates larger scale sound, the low 46Hz response gives punchy, controlled bass, and a 22mm decoupled high frequency driver with wide surround provides wide even dispersion of stereo image.
- Low Profile Terminals: Designed with recessed cut-outs to reduce cabinet noise, and featuring low profile binding posts with sockets deep enough for 4mm (0.16") banana plugs, you can shelf mount or stand mount these speakers near a rear wall.
- P2P Bracing: With internal bracing placed with computer aid, the structural integrity of the bookshelf speakers' enclosures is greatly improved. This helps keep the enclosure extra quiet, enhancing the focus of the stereo image and giving the soundstage more accuracy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it handle 8 ohm receiver?**
A: Absolutely!

**Q: Does anyone know if they can be placed horizontally, on their side? Will it affect performance?**
A: Certainly you could try that.  It might accentuate any resonances in the cabinet since more cabinet surface would be in contact with the shelf it's on.  One thing to note about these great (not so) little speakers is that what they sit on and how they are placed does make a difference.  Ideally they should be upright on solid metal stands 1-2 feet from a wall and pointed in a little to focus their sound toward your listening chair/position.  Jamming them sideways into a cramped space will not help their sound but if they are already jammed in somewhere it probably won't degrade it much further.

**Q: I just purchased these but I am new to audio equipment and wondering if I need speaker wire or speaker cables to connect these to the amplifier?**
A: Yes you need wires; they are not wifi or blutooth enabled.  you can get some good 12 gauge two stranded wire (Monoprice is one brand) and buy some Banana Plug endings (called terminations); get a wire stripper (inexpensive device) and go to town.  Or you can spend a lot more bucks and get some fancy already terminated wire from companies that play upon the insecurities of equipment obsessed audio enthusiasts.

**Q: What color are the speaker grilles for the arctic white finish?**
A: black

*by A***S on 31 January 2024*

J'ai acheté ces enceintes pour un deuxième système. Associées à un bon matériel, elles ne sonnent pas comme des enceintes à €300. En fait, ils se comparent favorablement à mes principales enceintes B&W qui coûtent 10 fois plus cher. Je les ai associés à un Marantz HD-AMP1 à l'aide de câbles QED en argent. La source est une Apple TV 4K exécutant Apple Music. Ouah! J'attends maintenant avec impatience de recevoir les supports associés qui rendront le son encore meilleur. Top!
