Reviews & Awards
"If you love the sound of Q Acoustics’ speaker packages but covet more power, the Q B12 is as good a solution as we could hope for... this is the kind of performance that should slot easily into any comparably talented speaker set-up... As long as you have the space, budget and amiable enough neighbours, we say go for it. Just be prepared to host movie nights from now on."
What Hi-Fi?, 5 Stars"The new subwoofer sounds bigger and deeper than previous efforts from Q Acoustics, but it’s also more effortless in its delivery. The Q B12 integrates perfectly with the 3010i speakers, creating a balanced low frequency foundation. It’s also a very responsive design, revealing plenty of speed that ensures both music and movies sound equally as good."
