{"product_id":"scansonic-hd-q3-standlautsprecher-schwarz","title":"Scansonic HD Q3 Floorstanding Speaker, Black (Pair)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Scansonic HD Q3 is a slim 2.5-way floorstanding speaker with a ribbon tweeter and carbon drivers in a bass-reflex cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q series is the more accessible line among the Danes – the \"little Raidhos\", as the trade press likes to call them. In black, the Q3 comes across as understated and elegant at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Q3?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike Raidho, Scansonic HD belongs to the Danish manufacturer Dantax, and the Raidho-inspired ribbon tweeter is the heart of it: a feather-light foil diaphragm that renders highs silky and detailed. Below it, two 5.25-inch carbon drivers work in a 2.5-way arrangement for mids and bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slim, rigid bass-reflex cabinet stays light yet stable. So you get audiophile ambition in a format that fits easily into any living room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn open, detailed sound with silky highs and precise mids that pulls you right into the music. The Q3 plays freely and resolves even complex passages cleanly. The bass is tonally coherent and matches its slim stature – substance rather than effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Raidho-derived tweeter brings a level of fine resolution to this price class that's rarely heard there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Q3 for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor small to medium-sized rooms and listeners who want a lot of resolution for their money. Ideal with a good integrated amplifier or streaming amplifier. Plain talk: the Q3 reaches down to around 52 Hz in the bass – anyone looking for deep-bass power for home cinema should pair it with a subwoofer or look at the Q8 and Q10. For honest stereo it's a superb entry into the Q series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q3 brings Raidho genes into an affordable class – and you can hear it. fairaudio, sempre-audio and hifistatement all praised it, especially the tweeter. We at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil advise you on amplifier and placement so it can show its full potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5-way floorstanding speaker, bass reflex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrivers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1× ribbon tweeter, 1× 5.25″ mid-\/woofer, 1× 5.25″ woofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52 Hz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover frequencies:\u003c\/strong\u003e 285 Hz \/ 2600 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended amplifier power:\u003c\/strong\u003e min. 50 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 170 × 1000 × 395 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.5 kg each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e one pair of speakers (2 pieces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNote on the product images\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome detail shots on this page show the Q3 in the walnut finish. The cabinet, drivers and connection panel are identical across all finishes – the only difference is the surface: the Q3 in black has a gloss lacquer finish. The manufacturer doesn't provide detail photos of the black version. Want to see the finish before you buy? Stop by our showroom in Wädenswil or give us a quick call – we're happy to send you a photo of the unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the price for a pair or a single unit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q3 is sold in pairs; the stated price applies to both speakers. As a floorstanding speaker it needs no stands. So you get your complete stereo pair with a single purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the Q series and the MB series?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth use the Raidho ribbon tweeter but are tuned and built differently. The Q series is the more accessible line with a bass-reflex cabinet. Which suits your room and taste better is best judged by comparing them – we're happy to advise you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Q3 reach in the bass?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q3 goes down to around 52 Hz – clean and coherent for music in small to medium rooms. For deep-bass effects in home cinema, a subwoofer or a larger Q model is recommended. For stereo, its low-end extension is well balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich amplifier suits the Q3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA high-quality integrated amplifier or streaming amplifier from around 50 watts is a good fit. Clean, controlled power delivers more than sheer wattage. Which combination suits your room and budget is something we'll work out together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Scansonic HD Q3 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a speaker only convinces in the right chain.
