Active Amplication Dynamic Widescreen Sound
In a traditional, passive audio system there is one amplier. It drives
two speakers, which will have a total of at least four drivers. In the
Q Acoustics Q Active system, each driver - there are three in each
Q Active 200 speaker and four in each Q Active 400 speaker - is
controlled by its own individual, specically selected amplier.
Using a total of six (or eight) discrete ampliers, with a total of 280
(or 440) watts of power to drive the Q Active system means each
individual driver receives its own carefully regulated amplication.
As a result, Q Acoustics is able to control each driver with far more
accuracy and nesse than would otherwise be possible and this, in
turn, means Q Active can deliver the widest, most rigorously
focused and most convincing soundstage possible. Which, in short,
means Q Active sounds bigger and more precise than you might
think possible.
Hearing is believing.
Q Active doesn’t look unique simply for the sake of it.
Q Acoustics decided from the outset that it wanted Q Active
to deliver a widescreen sound with no compromise in terms of
stereo focus or soundstage, it specied Balanced Mode Radiators
(BMRs) where less visionary companies might have stuck with the
more conventional ‘dome tweeter/midrange driver’ alternative.
Balanced Mode Radiators allow Q Active to deliver outstanding sound
quality across your entire listening area, rather than restricting it to the
‘sweet spot’ of more traditional driver arrangements.
In addition to this widescreen presentation, BMRs deliver seamless
midrange performance. Operating all the way down to 150Hz, where
they hand over to Q Actives’ subwoofer driver, there is no midrange
crossover distortion and, consequently, completely clean and
uncoloured midrange performance.
It allows for a degree of ne-tuning in your listening room as it’s
possible to position the BMRs to the inside or the outside of the
cabinets. The cabinets may also be more effectively braced for
optimum rigidity.
