”Q Acoustics' latest floorstanders deliver the sonic goods.” ’’What Hi-Fi?’ 2024 Product of the Year.
Flagship model that’s ideal for larger rooms Ideal for medium-sized to larger rooms, the flagship Q Acoustics 5050 produces sound on a grand scale. With 20% larger bass cones, plus a dedicated woofer, the bass response is by far the deepest yet from a 5000 Series model. The Continuous Curved Cone and isolated tweeter continue to work their magic at the midrange and top end. With a choice of four finishes, it’s also easy to get the perfect look for your décor.
The purest top-end response Based on the design from Q Acoustics’ top-end Concept models, the hermetically sealed and mechanically isolated tweeter units deliver a super-smooth top-end response. Mechanical decoupling effectively isolates the tweeter from vibrations, letting you hear every detail in the recording, no matter how subtle.
Continuous Curved Cone for seamless sound Q Acoustics’ advanced C3 (Continuous Curved Cone) woofer unit transforms the sound of this impressive speaker. By creating the perfect cone profile and using a powerful magnet, you get low distortion, seamless sound. The woofer design also enhances the music’s dynamics, with a bass response that’s not just deep but also tightly damped for a punchy response.
Larger, dedicated woofer for the deepest bass Like the 5040 floorstanding model, the 5050 features a second bass woofer for even an even deeper, more powerful bottom end response. Better still, in this case the cones are 20% larger that, along with the increased cabinet capacity, means that you get even deeper bass and more expansive sound. Ideal for dance, orchestral and stadium rock music, these speakers capture the full scale of the music in a way that many smaller speakers miss.
Advanced cabinet design for the purest sound For the purest, most natural sound, Q Acoustics have applied science and innovative engineering. Featuring HPE (Helmholtz Pressure Equalizer) technology, distortion is reduced to a minimum. Larger speaker cabinets tend to build up pressure in specific areas, causing resonance and cabinet distortion. By equalising the pressure around the cabinet, the pressure is reduced, giving a less distorted sound.
Improved cabinet bracing Working alongside HPE is P2P bracing. P2P (Point-to-Point) bracing is deployed to enhance rigidity and further reduce cabinet distortion. Reducing cabinet distortion lets the drive units operate at their optimum, giving a cleaner, more focused sound.
Choice of premium finishes Complementing the 5050’s smooth good looks, a range of different cabinet finishes creates the perfect look for your room. Choose from contemporary Satin Black or Satin White finishes or go for the more traditional Santos Rosewood or Holme Oak real wood veneers.
