In 2005 we assembled a design team from the world's most experienced and successful loudspeaker designers and presented them with a very simple goal. We challenged them to `redefine the possible' and design and produce the very best affordable loudspeakers the world has ever known. The multiple awards and ecstatic reaction from the world's press confirmed our belief that the Q Acoustics design team achieved this monumental objective and the original `1000 Series' loudspeakers represented unequalled sonic performance in their class. How did they attain this astonishing result? The answer was a combination of brilliant design and the freedom to implement that design to maximise sonic performance. They were never forced to compromise their ideas by using `off the shelf' solutions. Every part of the `1000 Series' was bespoke, optimised specifically for each new model. The tweeters, bass/midrange drivers, crossovers, terminal panel and fully braced cabinets were all designed with the sole purpose of creating the very best performing loudspeakers. In 2007 we challenged the team to make them even better.

They have. The new improved Q Acoustics 1000i Series is phenomenal. What have we done? Every model has improved tweeter performance, a superior crossover with bespoke `ClarityCap' and other high quality polypropylene capacitors, upgraded internal wiring and cabinet damping materials. The new 1020i, 1030i and 1050i models also benefit from enhanced cabinet bracing. The new 1000Si subwoofer is also completely upgraded with a new more powerful amplifier, crossover and uprated long-throw bass driver complete with a larger magnet.

1030i Compact Floorstanding Speaker The elegant appearance of this compact, floorstanding loudspeaker is enhanced by an integral aluminium plinth, featuring `top configurable' floor spikes for precise, easy adjustment. The classleading sound quality from its long throw, 165mm bass driver and 25mm polyester weave tweeter can be further optimised by adding sand to the special compartment built into the base of the cabinet.

1000WB Wall Brackets The Q Acoustics 1000WB Wall Bracket is for use with the 1010i and 1020i bookshelf speakers. It features a rigid mounting system for safety and sound performance. Simple adjustment allows for optimum speaker angle in all situations.
1000CB Centre Channel Wall Bracket The Q Acoustics 1000CB Wall Bracket is for use with the 1000Ci centre channel speaker. It features a rigid mounting system for safety and sound performance.
1000ST Speaker Stand The Q Acoustics 1000ST has been specially designed for use with the 1010i and the 1020i bookshelf speakers. Both these models can be bolted to the stand to optimise performance. Luxuriously crafted from extruded aluminium with a pressure die-cast base, the 1000ST speaker stand also features integral cable management, ensuring unsightly cables are hidden from view. Spikes are provided with floor protectors, uniquely these can be adjusted from above reducing installation time.
Each model is available in a choice of Graphite Black, Beech or Cherry finishes and all boast the same excellent, low distortion, ferro-fluid cooled, micro polyester weave tweeter. Advanced, fourth order Linkwitz-Riley crossovers are used throughout, ensuring the smoothest response at the crossover frequencies, whilst stringent quality control requires every drive unit to be `torque mounted' into the front baffles, the latter being rigid, low resonance, multi-radial designs up to 32mm thick.
