Really Good Desktop Speakers

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2023

I never had any experience with Q Accoustics other than the reviews online and all of the reviewers were fairly impressed with their 3000i series of speakers. I went with the smaller3010i just due to desk space and price. I had a DAC for my headphone but not really for the speakers. I went with the Schiit Audio Rekkr. Wow. I was really impressed at the sound of not only the tiny amp, but the speakers as well! I guess my system isn’t up to high dollar audiophile systems, but I really can’t say it was lacking in any way. I did however noticed that there wasn’t enough headroom with the Rekkr since I had the volume knob nearly at full. I bought a second one to use them both as mono amps and that REALLY made the difference. Perhaps the only thing I can say is that the music isn’t really separated like some bigger and better amps, but everything sounds very natural. Vocals and instruments included. I am VERY pleased with my setup for now and I can’t imagine spending the extra money to upgrade it

Wow, are these inefficient ?

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019

Just got the Q 3010i with 4 in main spks.... I have no way to actually measure but they seem very inefficient - to match Polk Ai in vol, the indicater on my 100 w. ch receiver goes from 38 to 54 . sound wise they seem laid back, reserved. watching a DVD ( Sarah McLachlan, said to be very well recorded) when a drummer hits a cymbal I want to hear it. barely.
Of course Sarah sounds pristine, but no better than with my 1978 Koss 1020 ( $300. back then) - what's the point of relatively inexpensive ( said to be near top sound quality above the low bass) speakers that need a strong amp ?

Outstanding speakers

I'm glad I spent the extra money to get these speakers. I got a Stereo Tube amp for Christmas and I really wanted to do justice to the "supposed" fidelity improvement. Glad I did, I couldn't be happier with the sound I'm getting now. The speakers also look lovely.

Wanted to get some smaller speakers for my entertainment systems and these have served quite well so far. Nice sound and bass response. Look good and Don't take up tons of room.

The sound quality of these speakers is great and sounds better than a pair of older JBL speakers that are larger. Very happy with these and they look great.

A joy for your ear balls. Fills a standard bedroom perfectly. They are a bit deep for a “bookshelf” but the sound makes it worth it.

Pretty good sound

Sounds good, but you will want a subwoofer to get the most out of them. I had ordered the matching subwoofer, but it was dead on arrival. They were out of stock when I tried to reorder a replacement.
