Q Acoustics, a renowned name in audio innovation, has launched its latest Q SUB Series, a trio of subwoofers designed to elevate home cinema and music experiences with powerful, nuanced bass. Comprising the 8-inch Q SUB80, 10-inch Q SUB100, and 12-inch Q SUB120, this new family promises to seamlessly integrate into any audio setup—be it a 7.2, 5.1, or 2.1 system, or paired with powered speakers—delivering dramatic low-end impact for movies and music alike.
Tailored Bass for Every Space
The Q SUB Series is engineered to suit rooms and systems of all sizes. Whether you’re enhancing a compact setup with the Q SUB80 or filling a larger space with the commanding Q SUB120, each model offers controlled, impactful bass. What sets these subwoofers apart is their use of Digital Signal Processing (DSP), which tackles common integration challenges like sound timing and phase alignment. With fine delay adjustments and a phase inversion switch, users can optimize performance without professional help, ensuring the subwoofer blends effortlessly with existing speakers.
Smart Source Detection
Versatility is at the heart of the Q SUB design. The series accommodates a range of input sources—stereo preamp outputs, mono feeds from active speakers, or home cinema systems—thanks to a sophisticated DSP algorithm. This technology automatically detects the signal type and level, adjusting gain to maintain optimal signal-to-noise ratios and dynamic range. The result is consistent, high-quality sound no matter the source.
Sleek Design Meets Powerful Performance
Aesthetically, the Q SUB Series combines form and function. Available in Satin Black with a black grille or Satin White with a grey grille, these subwoofers sport a minimalist look that complements any interior. Their clean design allows them to blend discreetly or stand out as a statement piece. Joining the slimline 3060S, the new models complete Q Acoustics’ broader subwoofer lineup.
At the core of each unit is a custom-designed amplifier module featuring four parallel bridge-tied load (PBTL) digital power stages. This configuration delivers up to 300W continuous and 600W peak power, with total harmonic distortion below 0.1% up to 300W. The result is exceptional efficiency, reduced heat, and precise speaker control.
Fine-Tuned Audio Engineering
The Q SUB Series offers a low pass filter adjustable from 40 Hz to 250 Hz, allowing users to match the subwoofer’s upper frequency response to their system’s needs. The driver units—featuring heavy-duty steel chassis, paper cones, and rubber surrounds—range from 203mm (Q SUB80) to 305mm (Q SUB120), with voice coils designed for minimal distortion.
The cabinets, built from 18mm high-density MDF with a 36mm double-thickness baffle, utilize an infinite baffle (sealed box) design for tight, focused bass. Internal dart bracing enhances stability, ensuring performance under pressure, while the absence of a port simplifies placement near walls or furniture.
A Game-Changer for Audio Enthusiasts
With the Q SUB Series, Q Acoustics reaffirms its commitment to delivering accessible, high-performance audio. Whether you’re a cinephile seeking cinematic depth or a music lover craving richer lows, these subwoofers offer a compelling blend of power, precision, and style—making them a standout addition to any sound system.
