Q Acoustics’ has expanded its 3000c loudspeaker series with the debut of the 3040c. The 3040c is a floorstanding speaker, designed for more intimate surroundings.
Like its 3000c family members, the 3040c features Q Acoustics’ core driver platform: the C3 Continuous Curved Cone mid/bass profile. The C3 driver combines the powerful bass response of a traditional straight conic cone with the midrange clarity and high-frequency control of a flared cone. The result: Twin 4.75-inch C3 mid/bass drivers deliver a controlled bass performance, expressive midrange, and smoother integration with the high frequency driver.
The 3040c tweeter features a “floating” design that is hermetically sealed and mechanically isolated from the baffle. By reducing internal pressure and mid/bass vibrations from colouring the high frequencies, this design, combined with a vented inner chamber, achieves ultra-low distortion. This allows for a lower crossover point and seamless transition between drivers.
With no visible joints or bolts, the 3040c is fronted by a one-piece satin nickel and satin chrome (white mode) driver trim. The 3040c is available in four finishes – Satin Black, Satin White, Pink Oak, and Claro Walnut.
The Q Acoustics 3040c is available now for an SRP of $1,099.
