The Q Acoustics 2000 Series
Following the astonishing success of our 1000 and 1000i ranges, we again challenged
the world’s most renowned loudspeaker engineers to design new models that deliver
both unrivalled sonic performance and breathtaking value for money. In other words,
the very best affordable loudspeakers ever produced.
Oh, and we demanded the new speakers be very stylish as well.
With the all new Q Acoustics ‘2000 Series’ our designers have surpassed themselves.
Already ‘What Hi-Fi? Sound & Vision’ magazine has bestowed its prestigious ‘Product of
the Year’ award on the 2000 series 5.1 loudspeaker package and also anointed the
compact bookshelf 2010 model ‘Best Stereo Speakers up to £150’.

2010 Compact Bookshelf
Wallmount Speaker
This award winning ultra compact bookshelf
speaker sets new standards for sonic performance
in its class. Boasting class leading distortion
levels, it is suitable for both hi-fi music and home
cinema use and is an ideal match for the 2000C
centre speaker and 2070S subwoofer.
The 2010 can also be stand or wall mounted,
using the dedicated 2000ST stand or 2000WB
wall bracket.
"thrill with vigour and authority."
"engaging without ever lacking control."
2020 Bookshelf/Wallmount Speaker
A medium sized bookshelf design that exudes
quality. The beautifully finished, low resonance
cabinet encapsulates the 25mm ferro-fluid cooled
tweeter and precision engineered 125mm bass
driver to produce a speaker with extended bass,
an open mid-range, astonishing transient
response and exceptional high frequency clarity.
The 2000ST or 2000WB allow the 2020 to be
stand or wall mounted.

2050 Floorstanding Speaker
Visually striking in the new Piano Black high gloss finish, the
2050, the exquisitely proportioned flagship of the 2000 Series,
is both sonically and aesthetically enhanced by its integral steel
plinth with ‘top configurable’ floor spikes. Twin 165mm drivers
deliver exceptional bass extension, midrange openness, clarity
and smooth detailed high frequencies. They are ideal for both
music and high energy movies. The overall sonic performance
of this outstanding loudspeaker belies its affordable price.

2070S Subwoofer
2000C Centre Channel Speaker
Unusually at its price level, the Model 2070S subwoofer is a
completely DSP (Digital Signal Processing) driven system with
highly efficient Class D amplification. However this has meant we
have been able to achieve an advanced level of functionality, as
well as optimising the sonic performance, by undertaking all
filtering and limiting completely in the digital domain.
An example is the ‘Speaker Type’ function switch, which alters
the characteristic of the subwoofer’s frequency response at the
crossover point. This allows the subwoofer to be optimised for
use with either ‘ported’ speakers, like the rest of the Q Acoustics
range, or infinite baffle models.
A centre channel speaker with twin 100mm bass drivers and
a ferro-fluid high frequency unit to acoustically match and
complement any of the 2000 Series. Removable rear port
bungs means it can deliver its outstanding, seamless
performance whether it is bookshelf, stand mounted or
wall mounted by using the 2000WB wall bracket.

2000ST Speaker stand

simple without the need for visible fixings or obtrusive lock-nuts.
