About the Q Acoustics QA5048

From our tech experts at CEN

The Q Acoustics 5040 (QA5048) is a pair of 2-way floorstanding speakers in Holme Oak finish, part of the Q Acoustics 5000 Series. Each cabinet uses twin 125 mm bass drivers and a 25 mm treble unit, reaching down to 39 Hz (–6 dB). They suit both hi-fi stereo and home cinema use.

Who it suits

The 5040 suits listeners who want genuine floorstander weight in a room where space is limited, thanks to its modest 361 mm width. The Holme Oak finish works well in warmer interiors; the same speaker is available in Satin Black and Satin White if you prefer a cooler look.

Our tech experts advise

Use an amplifier rated between 25 and 150 W; the nominal impedance is 6 Ω with a minimum of 3.0 Ω, so confirm your amplifier handles lower loads comfortably. Each speaker weighs 18.0 kg, so allow two people when positioning them. Spikes, stabilisers and magnetic grilles are all included in the box.
