Switch from Sonos Soundbar to 5.1 surround system.

Guru Maith Agut

Hi guys,


I have had a Sonos soundbar for a couple years now and in general I've been very happy with the all round sound. I recently upgraded my tv from a 43" LG to a 65" Sony. I have never used the speakers in the tv at all but in the past few weeks I have really noticed that the vocal sounds are not sharp enough as I would like.

I have therefore decided to make a jump to a dedicated 5.1 speaker system. The room the tv is in is 20' x 16' so it's a big room to fill with sound. I saw a thread here recently with a guy discussing the Q range of speakers so I had a look on your site and this is what I'm considering going with.

Would they be a good choice for my room size and needs? I mainly use tv for viewing through Sky setup but also use the room to just sit and listen to music. I rarely game on the tv as I have a separate small room where I have an Xbox setup and I'll probably switch my Sonos soundbar in there once I have bought the new system.


I'm ready to purchase this week as I have been told by the Missus that this is my birthday pressie, so no time like the present unless she forgets lol



Look forward to your input and also tell me what else I may need to set the system up fully i.e. cables etc.

Hi Guru Maith Agut.

Thanks for the post.

The system you have selected would be fantastic!

Just a few issue at the moment though.

We are currently awaiting more stock to arrive of the AVRX2700 and the centre speaker the 3090Ci is also pending stock.

If you wanted to drop me your full name and address in a PM them I can get the order onto our system so when they come back into stock your are in line for one of each.
Both the speaker pack and 2700 have been very popular over the last lot of weeks and the orders are building up fast on them.

You would also require speaker cable and a subwoofer cable for connecting them.
For speaker cable I would recommend the Symphony 200 which is priced at 1.99 Euro per meter.

For the sublink there is the Cambridge 7.5m priced at 27.99 Euro

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks Kenny.

Have you any idea how long I'd be looking at waiting for these out of stock items?



Thanks

Hey Guru Maith Agut.

The 2700 are on their way to us already from Denon and the 3090Ci are getting ordered up today or tomorrow direct with Q Acoustics.
Hopefully the 2700 will arrive this week and the 3090Ci as quickly as possible as there are several customers already waiting on these.

Kenny.

Hi lads,


Any update on the 3090ci centre speaker yet? It's badly missed to complete my system now..

Hi Guru Maith Agut.

The 3090Ci are out of stock at Q Acoustics and they say they should have more of them towards the end of the month and as soon as they are through the door we will ship one straight back out to you.

Sorry for the delay with this but unfortunately Q Acoustics themselves are to get more made
