About this deal

Peter Tyson have the last stocks of the original Q Acoustics 3020 as Richer Sounds don't sell them now. About £40 cheaper than the 3020i version.

Key Features

The Q Acoustics 3020 is an award-winning bookshelf speaker specially designed for small to medium sized rooms looking for detailed and precise sound. Voted the 'Best Stereo Speakers Under £200' by What HiFi, the 3020s use a revolutionary 2-in-1 ring/dome tweeter and a very clever bass driver, made from a mix of paper and aramid fibres, very similar to the likes of Kevlar and Teflon. The use of this material ensures the sound delivered from the speakers, is wonderfully open and realistic, delivering an extraordinary 'being there' three-dimensional soundstage. What more could you want from a pair of bookshelf speakers?

Like its little brother, the medium sized 3020 bookshelf speakers benefits from the advanced, low distortion, wide dispersion, new 3000 Series Concentric Ring Dome tweeter; uprated crossover and improved low resonance cabinet. In addition, it boasts a larger 5 inch drive unit, with the new Aramid Fibre/Paper cone material. This larger driver delivers an extended big bass response with fast dynamics, wonderfully open, realistic midrange and an extraordinary 'being there' three dimensional sound.

I have these speakers that I use as rear speakers as I also have the 3050 tower speakers and for the price they are quality.

I'm considering upgrading my rear speakers (currently just little onkyo satellites) - how did you deal with positioning? Did you just happen to have a cabinet to the rear or did you use mounts/stands? The positive of the satellites is they take up so little room, but obviously compromise on sound. I've got the 3020i's for front speakers and they're easily 4-6x the size of a regular satellite speaker.

Seems a bit pricey

Based on what?

ive just bought the Edifier R1280T and i reckon i wont notice a massive difference without them being side by side but i do like the wood colour, i got mine in white. heat added as it reviews well and best price for them.
12th Mar
I recon you would. Edifiers are active speakers for half the price, these hifi speakers that require a decent amplifier to get the best out of them (think £500+). There will be a huge difference in sound quality.

That seems a very good price. Am I going to be totally underwhelmed as the owner of a pair of 5010 if I get these for my other system?
13th Mar
erinsaudiocorner.com/lou…20/ if 5010 are tuned as badly as the 5020s, I wouldnt be surprised if these sounded better. But to be honest Id look at Wharfedale 12.1 or Elac DB6.2 or just getting actives

A good standard price, however the 3020i can normally be had around this price when there is and eBay discount.
