"Few rivals sound so composed and detailed yet – thanks to a beautifully judged and refined balance – remain so unfussy about partnering equipment." What HiFi 5 Stars, July 2012.
Evolved from the awarding winning 2010, the Q Acoustics 2010i (the i stands for improved) bookshelf or standmount speakers are stylish, well-designed, robustly built and great sounding. With their affordable price tag, they are perfect for use with entry-level separates and micro systems.
Their two way configuration allows these compact speakers to deliver an impressively detailed sound that is equally suitable for both hifi and home cinema. This is largely due to the advanced driver technology. The 2010is feature multi-layer cone tweeters with 'super-decoupling' from the speaker's baffle and carbon fibre and ceramic coated paper cone woofers, both of which deliver amazing low levels of distortion. The result of this technology is a soundstage which is clean, spacious and detailed with impressive stereo imaging.
The speakers also feature an innovative connection system. Instead of terminals protruding from the rear of the speaker in the conventional manner, the 2010is' terminals are located in a recessed panel on the bottom of the speaker. This means the speakers can be mounted flat up against the wall using the separately available wall bracket which also gives tilt and turn movement.
Available in graphite, walnut or premium gloss black or gloss white finishes, these delightful speakers will entertain for hours at a time with their sweet and open sound.
If you like the sound of the 2010is, but are looking for a larger speaker for greater authority and punch, consider the Q Acoustics 2020i bookshelf speaker, also available from Superfi.

What HiFi 5 Stars
"Refined yet entertaining; impressive resolution; well-judged tonal balance", "They’ll work quite happily at the end of a Denon D-M38 micro system, but if you stretch your budget to the likes of Marantz’s 6004 CD/amplifier combination you’ll find these speakers deliver a brilliant performance for the money", "Few rivals sound so composed and detailed yet – thanks to a beautifully judged and refined balance – remain so unfussy about partnering equipment.".

"Sound a lot like their bigger brothers, the award winning 2020is." "There's the same combination of refinement and increased level of attack, and a similar degree of insight into recordings." "At this price and size level there's little around that can worry the 2010is."
