How to choose floorstanding speakers
Floorstanders suit medium to large rooms where you want scale and bass without adding a subwoofer straight away. Leave some space behind and to the sides of each speaker, and angle them slightly towards your listening position. Make sure your amplifier or AV receiver is a good match for the speakers. For smaller rooms, see our bookshelf speakers.
Floorstanding Speakers FAQs
Q: Are floorstanding speakers better than bookshelf speakers?
A: Not always. Floorstanders usually go deeper in the bass and fill larger rooms, while bookshelf speakers suit smaller spaces.
Q: Can the Q Acoustics 5040 be used for home cinema?
A: Yes. They work as the front left and right speakers, with the 5090 centre speaker handling dialogue.
Q: Do floorstanding speakers need a subwoofer?
A: Many listeners find floorstanders give enough bass for music. For films, a subwoofer adds impact to low-frequency effects.
