And don’t they still look premium…
In case you’ve yet to be introduced to High End Munich (don’t worry, they’re a very friendly bunch), it’s where the elite hi-fi brands go to flex – see the wild audio experiences, the outrageously expensive system separates or the mind-blowing headphones I’ve been lucky enough to try over the years.
So, Q Acoustics’ new 3000c loudspeaker series is something of a novelty at the elite German trade show. Why? Well, because «affordable» isn’t a word you often hear at High End Munich – and affordable is what these are.
But that doesn’t mean the British company isn’t serious about sound; our recent five-star review of the Q Acoustics M40 HD proves that. Also, the new speakers all feature Q Acoustics’ notable C3 (or Continuous Curved Cone) driver design, first introduced in the firm’s 5000 series, to build on the legacy of the 3000i – Q Acoustics’ popular speaker series launched in 2018.
What’s perhaps most notable to me is that while every model in the 3000c series features the acoustic cabinet innovations first introduced in the company’s high-end Concept range of loudspeakers (see our five-star Q Acoustics Concept 300 review for more on this) they come in at a much lower price point.
The company bills the 3000c series as «the perfect entry-point into a modern audiophile world, or as a cost-effective speaker upgrade».
