Great review Sean! Between you Thomas, TNBT, Gutt, Darko, Z, Digital Stereophony, & JNT you guys rock as an industry of reviewers! Each of you have your strengths but you all are much different which is why it's fun to watch all of the channels to see the different takes. I really appreciate your comparisons and your placement suggestion portions of your vids.
Thanks for the review Sean and your comparisons are valuable and always appreciated. Not sure why other reviewers don't talk about comparisons enough. What I would hope is that u can include, is a sound demo in your future reviews.
The comparison between the 3030i and the Elac is what I was looking for, thanks for this.
Man, these are nice looking speakers for not much $$! Great job as usual!
Excellent review dude, thanks.
Yust....thank you
All of yours rewievs...are realy spot on
Tells all of understanding for sound which apire from equimpnent you rewiev
Thank you
Do not ever stop...😊👍🍀🙌🏅
Thanks Zoran!
You can thank, amongst others, Q Acoustics, for the movement to provide high-er fidelity to entry level speakers. The 1000i came out in 2007. Other speaker designers caught on - notably Andrew Jones, starting with his Pioneer BS-21s, which had a much wider reach and scale than Q Acoustics could have at the time. And of course, the market soaked all this up eagerly.
Another great video, thanks. I have the Concept 500’s & they are amazing. Would strongly recommend them.
could you comment a bit more on the Concept 500. Very very few decent reviews out there. They are on my short list (with klipsch forte III, tekton double impact and revel performa3 F208). will be listening to jazz and classical and a bit of folk rock. would love a "being there" performance but refinement and instrument placement is also key.
Hi Sean! As I commented on your review of the 3020i, Great looking speaker cabinet, very nice finish work. The 3030i, also has a great price tag like it's little brother. The first thing that I thought of when I saw the 3030i next to the 3020i, was how well they would work together. These would be perfect for a surround system, that also serves as a music listening system. Using a pair of the 3030i for the fronts, and a pair of the 3020i for surrounds.To top it off one could use the Q Acoustics 3090C, or 3090Ci as a center channel. Double duty for music, and movies for not a lot of cash! Have a great one man!
Yep, they are quite pretty!
Have these as AVR fronts. Fantastic speakers. Striking sound for modern music soundtracks and remarkable imaging
Thank you for the comparison, that's the biggest takeaway for me. Thk u Sean.
Great review. Thanks alot.
You have an uncanny gift for talking me out of impulse Hi-Fi purchases. I'm sitting here at 3 in the morning having spent the whole night trying to decide whether or not to go for a £520 3030i and NAD C 316BEE v2 bundle. It's a great deal but I'm very happy with my existing set-up and your points about small rooms and the bass ports needing to be two feet away from the wall gave me the out I needed.
I use a pair of speakers from the early 70s (Castle Acoustics Richmond) with an older NAD amplifier and the looser bass and treble is part of the charm. The NAD 310 has a very good SNR of 106db and the clear sound makes a good combination. I get a nice vintage sound from CDs and vinyl alike and I can go from drum and bass to classical at the drop of a hat.
I love my system but I keep getting tempted to try and see what else is out there. The main thing that stops me doing it is the thought of having to disconnect my Castle speakers and put them away and I just don't know if I could bring myself to do it.
It looks gorgeous imo
The best part is the compare the other speakers! Helps a lot!
I would like to see a comparison between the Elac Debut bookshelf and the Elac Debut floorstanding speakers.
That way the viewers can get a good sense of what the differences are between the bookhelf and the floorstanding
speaker other than bass output.
Hi Sean! Thanks for all your very interesting reviews. I've been shopping around to find a good pair of speakers, a full featured amp and a cd player. But, the market is so vast,... I'm lost,... I'm a little bit like you, in terms of music listening: a little bit of everything. I just don't need much bass for my music. I prefer clarity and precision since I listen to a lot of classical and opera. I'm looking at a budget system, under $2,000, for all three componentes. I would welcome your advice on this. I hear the speakers are the most important component. What are your favorite speakers under $750? With that clue I could start to build the System. I also thought I could start with a pair of powered speakers, they're really good and affordable right now,... I'm looking at Edifier compared to the "high end" Peachtree, Kanto, Audioengine, etc,... What's your take on these?
I bit the bullet and finally picked up the Q Acoustics 3030i and paired them with the similarly priced Cambridge Audio AXR85. So far after listening to a few new records I am now a believer in buying equipment dedicated to a purpose. The phono stage built into the AXR85 is worlds better than what was built into my RX-V6A from Yamaha. I was like okay... now I get it... records should sound like this on the regs. ;]
I had my best friend over and he was digging the sound coming out of the system. After a moment he said this.... "Wait that is coming out of a vinyl record!"... haha yup! That made my day. I then streamed some Spotify through AXR85 built in BT and it sounded near as I can tell CD quality. I ended up preferring the sound of the 3030i's with the foam port plug as there was so much bass. It's not that I did not like the sound/feel of the base... just trying to be a good neighbor :)
Everything that Zero has said about this speaker is on point and everything that most other reviewers have said is also on point. I am super pleased with my new stereo system and really blown away by the music coming out of it. I found myself just letting the music play and really enjoying all of the distinct layers that I usually cannot pick up on so well with other equipment.
Would I say that it was worth the money spent? Absolutely!
I also own the AXR85..the phono stage does sound fantastic...but I brought a separate phono amp and I did notice a slight improvement..I would recommend the 3050i s...superb sound and they look great in the walnut.
In the end I want to choose between Dali oberon 3 and Q acoustic 3030i with Marantz pm 6006. Pop music, dance and rock ballads. Thank you.
I've been admiring these for a while now. Hoping they will make a powered version with the same look.
我有整套的q acoustic
從40.20.3050i.3090i.3030i
我對他們的聲音非常滿意，它們有一個很重要的特色，那就是他們的低音非常有彈性，且溫暖，還能長時間聆聽，聆聽的過程一直使你感到溫暖及溫馨~
They are great all round speakers. I own the 2020i's. For the price i paid 90 GBP for the pair they are a steal.
I also have them paired up with the Maratnz PM 5005.
Talking gorgeous, can you please do a review of Wharfedale Evo 4?
Thanks for the comparison Sean. I always look forward to your videos. Can't wait to see what's coming. Are you planning on reviewing any cables? I thought you mentioned to Jay that you were going to get some in and try them out. Have you, are you? Just curious. I know you're not afraid to touch the "third rail". Ha! Peace.
I was genuinely interested in checking out the Copper Colours, because... why not? They were shipped out to me a week ago, but from what I can tell, they're still held up in China. The shipping situation right now is brutal.
Running Q Acoustics 3030i (closed reflex port) with Cambridge Audio CXA80 and a Q Acoustics 3060s in a 15m² room.
I use the Setup for listining and also have hooked up my DJ Setup to it; 2 Technics SL 1210 mk7 and a Can Electric Taula 2 Analog Rotary Mixer
Freakin love it!
Would love to have you review the OHM Tall 2000. As you probably know they are sold factory direct, thus we can’t go to a dealer and Hi-Fi shows are out (covid-19) I value your opinion. They have a 120 day return option but I am Canadian.
beautiful balanced articulate sound! I for one, dont like speakers with an over bright top end...these sound fantastic to me
Hello really appreciate your knowledge on audio products , was wondering if you will be doing a review in the future on Goldenear Reference X BRX bookshelf speakers ..Carey from Canada thank you
Thanks Carey. Nope. Cant say I have any plans on covering Golden Reference gear.
Thanks for this review. Have been waiting for this for quite a long time now. @14:30 - I did a blunder last year when I decided to pair 3020i with a mini Class D integrated amp as my desktop audio setup. Man! 3020i are definitely not made for near field listening. I ended up replacing them with the even smaller 3010i which sound much better (but not perfect) with that small amp. Either you give 3020i a lot of power (which isnt possible for desktop setups) or settle for smaller speakers like I did in my case.
Thanks for sharing! I don't feel like the 3020i's are bad in a desktop environment (at least when placed on decent stands), but I agree that there are other solutions out there that may work even better.
Thanks for the review, does Yamaha a-s301 match with these speakers?
The way they are aesthetically, they match up with Peach Tree equipment.
Hi. Thank you for the great review. I have a pair of 3020 and I love rthe sound. If I wanted to push the enveloppe arround 1000/1500 for a pair of speakers that would have the same sound characteristic (and very good soundstage) what would you suggest ? Thank you for your time if you have any...
Also, I know you do all that for free and might not have the time, but I haven't seen any reviewer ever doing presentation for newbies to this audio world of speakers in 3 budget zones (say up to 500, 500/1500 and 1500/3000) where the speakers presented for those categories would be grouped by sound signature style. It would be so helpful to know for a price range what are 5 good speakers/brands that are going to be airy and bright or laidback and warm... Because you guys are scientists with that, knowing all these speakers and what you technicaly hear more than most of us who sometimes barely know brands when it's all new to us, and it would be a very quick sorting for targetting what speakers to listen more reviews about...
(And did I say same with amps, for like the 10 most purchased brands) ? That too would help (How does Arcam sounds vs Cambridge, etc.) Global lines, or ranking the amp brands from brightest to warmest signatures, disregarding of their class). But I guess you have enough work... It was just some ideas.
Hi Sean. I really enjoy your reviews. Any chance of a video on the Totem Kin Monitor in a desktop set up? And how it would compare with others in it's general price range? Thanks from North Carolina.
Wouldn't mind checking them out, though I doubt that'll happen anytime soon. :(
I have these speakers , and their dedicated stands , in a solid state/cd/DAC system. Sound description pretty accurate by Sean. Not as laid back in my opinion and does have some needed energy
What about the highs?Do they have too many "spakle" treble for a person that likes soft/sweet treble?Neutral mids or sweet?I heard that bass is very deep/strong.
Hay man great review I know this was posted to years ago lol but I’ve been looking into getting theses as rear /side speakers in my bedroom next to a wall I’m using a denon 2200 w amp what do U think any advice would be great
Thanks for the video, Sean. How would the Bluesound Powernode work with the 3030is, would you say?
Excellent review!Elac dbr 62 is very pricey in Europe 560 euros!!
What crossover would you put 3030i for home theatre?
Would you please consider reviewing the Quad S2? It' s not that well covered and I'd love to hear you take, esp nearfield!
i really enjoy your analysis of these products. How about a short sound demo
Thanks. Sound Demos will likely be a no-go for awhile. I've yet to see anybody on this platform produce sound demos that accurately portray what a product sounds like - even in the general sense. And there are way too many people who think they are capable of 'auditioning' the product from the comfort of their own home. No plans on going there.. :D
@@ZeroFidelity Right on Yes I understand the complications of portraying the true sound of a product over You tube . Just nice to get a snippet of the scale, tone etc
The Q Acoustic 3030! recommended stereo amplifier power is 15-75W with average of 6ohm, and the Cambridge Audio AXR100 output is 100W at 8ohms. Can anyone elaborate if this set up safe? As it was recommended in the video for a more relaxed sound.
thanks for this review , do you think it is a good match 3030i and denon pma-800ne ?
would they do well with the Rotel A12 integrated amp? I am looking at these and the KEF q350

Hi, do you think they'd make good rear surrounds on a 5.1 system?
So, which do you prefer, these speakers or the Elac Debut B6.2? Thanks.
Sian, you are absolutely right. Advancement in speaker technology above any other component, means that right now, speakers costing under £500 offer far superior performance than speakers costing £1000 10 years ago. I’m in the middle of upgrading my system. Not that there’s anything wrong with my current system, just that I now have more disposable income than I had when I first got into audio 35 years ago. My amp cost me £1800 - it is still in production, but now comes with a remote and costs £1600 and still kicks ass and holds it’s own against amps at twice the price, which is why I’m experiencing difficulty choosing an upgrade. My speakers on the other hand cost me £2400 35 years ago. Now, speakers costing far less easily out perform my current pair. So much so that I’m spoilt for choice in the price bracket ice allocated so I’m still enjoying my original pair.
Yep. If anything, we're at this tipping point of over saturation. Lots of great stuff out there.
Zero Fidelity that doesn’t making choosing any easier, especially when dealers are tied to specific brands making synergy difficult !
I find the 3030i to be an easy to drive speaker, likely because it’s rated at 88 db. The recommended power rating is between 25-75 watts. But, I’m running my set at 20 watt/channel at 4ohm with my old mini stereo receiver in a medium sized room with no power issues. The 3030i’s are surprisingly large speakers though, which require a large amount of floor space 2-3 feet away from the wall to make them sound good.
How is the uppermids and highs,are they non fatiguing?
@@andreassouth1523 I recently switched amps to a Rega Brio, and the speakers sound a bit more forward sounding and detailed on the high end compared to my old class D amp. But they still sound smooth, and take the edge off tracks that I’d find fatiguing on other speakers. Easy on me by Adele, and Rise Up by Andra Day are pleasant to listen too through the 3030i’s.
What about do review xtz spirit 4 ?
You have to start calling them the thirty-thirty I rather that the 3 zero, 3 zero I. This video could’ve been half as long.
was just thinking the SAME... thirdy thirdy sounds even coooler ;-))
Hi, i'm about to pick one of these up in a week or so. But before i do that i want to ask should i go with these or elac debut b6.2? Which one ll be better overall? I ll be using them for movie and music both 50-50.
Hi Sean.If you like you can test the new Mission LX-3 MΚII 350 euros.Mission is sister company (IAG) with wharfedale and this new speaker was designed by Peter Comeau who i think also design the wrfs 225s!
Q Accoustics 3030i vs KEF LSX
Which one would you prefer??? And which amp for the 3030i? 🤷🏻♂️
Can you share your opinions
Polk audio signature S20 Vs Q Acoustic 3030i Vs 3020i
Which one I should buy
Perfect timing. I'm going to an audio store Tuesday to check out the 3030i live & in person and, if I like them enough, buy them. What amp they work best with is something I'd be interested in knowing more about. Anyone with thoughts on that, I'd love to hear your opinion.
Did you buy them?How is the uppermids and highs,are they non fatiguing?
pairing these with rel subs,good idea?
Hi,this is Naveen from india I am big fan of your videos. Please help me to choose between elac debut 6.2 or 3030i. I have marantz pm6004 amplifier.which deliver 45 watts per channel.i am very confused between two please let me know which one you will buy between them.love from india.waiting for your reply
how is the soundstage for this speaker?
As always a great video with a different perspective. I've been waiting for this review for a couple of months now, since you reviewed the q3020i, but now I know the q3030i won't work for my desktop setup. What would you recommend for a near field desktop setup for anything up to $1000 or 1200?
So at that *exact* pricepoint, I don't have a firm recommendation. A set of used Harbeth P3ESR's can be had for around $1200 if you're patient enough. If you want something new, the best nearfield speakers I've heard so far, at $1000/pair, are the Buchardt S300 MK II's... with the ports plugged. It's a real odd solution that wont physically work for some, but those surprised the eff outta me in a desktop environment.
@@ZeroFidelityAh, the Harbeth P3ESR's! I sometimes dream about them, lol! I am patient, that I am. Thanks, Sean.
ATC SCM7, which are sealed speakers.
Do you think the Marantz PM 6006 can drive the floorstanding version 3050i decently or is not have enough power ? In France the 3050i and 3030i are too close in term of price with the sale i don't know what you do... Thanks for your help and thanks for your different reviews 🙏
Hey zero fidelity how would the q acoustics 3030i compare to the Dali oberon 3s
2 year later, for desktop use, near field 2 feet away, is there something with better sq/price ratio today ? thanks
I've come into some money and I'm finally getting the Harbeths!! I never thought I'd be able to (those things ain't cheap)
Kevin Thomas
They are amazing and always keep their value
@@ralex3697 YES! You can't find them used for shit! And people on Audiogon want to sell them for their original price!
Never heard of harbeths are they an American brand. Just checked online God they are ugly, wish designers realised they have to be on display. Don't care how good they sound if they look ugly.
@@ENGLISHISBEST they are British speakers! They are THE British speakers!
Can audiophiles decide? about Comparing LCR setup (3030i and 3090i) vs ( dali oberon 1 and dali oberon vokal) which one would be winner for 50% music and 50% movie/show
May as well ask...anyone want to see a review of Fyne Audio speakers? I'd like to know more about the F301 bookshelf speakers.
Is the sony str 1080 a good match for them?
Hi Sean just contacting you to say appreciate your reviews. I have been watching different reviewers and your taste may be similar to mine. Wanting some advice and not sure if you are open to it. I live in Sri Lanka but Australian. I am rebuilding my 2 channel system. Problem is not much available here. I found q acoustic importer, KEF importer who also imports Wharfedale, Quad, musical fidelity, Arcam and Audiolab. So limited listening. Just listened to KEF Q550 and finding I am not liking metal sound. I thought maybe Buchardt as they pay for shipping and IOTA but interested in your thoughts 🙏 Kevin
Hey Zf. I’m far from an audiofile but my current favorite setup is the Elac reference premier and a sprout 100. In your elac video I never heard you mention the sprout but this combo is perfect. Elac adds the smooth musicality back to the class D amp, and the sprout with all its detail adds some life to the Elac. Just wondering if you had tried this?
I never tried out that combo, but I think it totally makes sense. Glad you're diggin on it!
Zero Fidelity if you do please get back to me. I had the rp600m’s before this. Sounded good but these speakers sound amazing on this amp. Never realized how much mid bass was missing from my rp600m’s till I heard these. Had to dial my SVS sb2000 back about 7-9 DB’s on the Elac speakers just because they sound so much fuller
@@RogallaMarineRC The mid-bass can actually be pretty full on the RP600M's. More a matter of setup with those. That said, I'm glad you're digging on your system. The Sprout II will remain in the history books for me, but it's such a straight forward amp that it can be easy to remember and predict what it will and will not work well with. That was a whole lotta W's.
I'm running the Sprout 100 with these Elacs. The sound is really good and I do think it's a great pairing.
Thank you for the review! I had already purchased the 3090ci and a pair of 3020i's in March, and a pair of 3030i's in April. Space, aesthetics, cost, and sound all came into play and I searched all the reviews I could find before moving up to the 3030i's. While all the reviews were good, what they were missing was a direct comparison between other speakers at the 3030i's price point and above. I absolutely was interested in the Elacs, the Bro3, and the Focal 906's and would've loved to have had that direct comparison sooner. It really does help those of us on a budget. Now I'm debating adding an amp to my Denon AVR-X3600h (maybe a big jump to the IOTAVX AVXP1) and a second subwoofer (any sub $300 recommendations appreciated lol). Thanks again!
Congrats on the system! As for subs: In my experience, it's best to match em'. Don't have enough experience with subs under $300 to be useful to ya.
高價位的揚聲器，很難有溫暖的聲音，因為他們都過於有特色及專注了~
Do I need special speaker cable?
What's up Sean I about to pull the trigger on the iotavx but just found out about the SoundArtist SA 200ai integrated amplifier form your boy at NBT studio. I was wondering if you listened to it yet and what type of sound signature it's have vs iotavx or is it more of an upgrade? Thanks and stay safe.
I have zero experience with that integrated, so I cant say. What I will say though, is that I seriously doubt it would be an upgrade. Will likely boil down to the familiar "well.. which presentation do you prefer?" scenario.
As an aside you seem to be the only guy who regularly includes Parasound. Thx.
So what kind of speakers are they after all? I just heard of them. Are they passive, they won't work without an amp?
compared Bro 3 's to theses ..anyone got thought or experience?
I'm sorry you mentioned Monitor Audio because I sold mine. The bass was like the old fashion boom box and quite artificial, and all the insert did was kill the natural bass. It's an opinion.
Sir , can we connect Q Aquastic 3030i to Marantz pm 6007 ? Is this model is perfect match for the above mentioned amplifier ? TiA.
This WAS going to be a short video. Then I fell back to old, familiar habits. Ah well. Maybe next time... :D
Old habits die hard...... thank god they do.love your video and videos
In the video you said you could get a better product with the same sound signature if you pay just a little bit more money. Could you tell us which speakers those are?
I paired the 3020i with the SMSL 300 and thought it sounds phenomenal. In fact, it sounds better than the IOTAVX. For some reason to my ears, this speaker seems to do really well with class D amps.
This is exactly the setup i want to go with, but im afraid that's gonna sound bright and fatiquing. What do you think, do they have enough bass?
@@apollokidd8273 the 3020 is a rather warm speaker and balances well with SMSL. Bass is good, especially if you use the SDB setting on the amp. It is a V curve setting that matches the 3020 well
@@jaytorr6701 thanks alot for the reply! I only have one more question, how is the bluetooth sound through the SMSL?
@@apollokidd8273 it is actually quite good.
I’m waiting for the 3040i with the 7” woofer
7" woofer might cause hollow midrange
The price is about right.
Dali Spektor 2 please!!!🙏🏼
great review, as always!
wonder which will be better between Elac DBR62 and Elac Uni-fi UB5 for classical music, jazz and folk. would be powered by an Iotavx SA3. i like a neutral, honest sound....
any advice/comments, greatly appreciated (yep, i could order both and return the ones i like least, but i honestly hate to do that).
Hmm. Sounds to me like the UB5's would be more to your taste. You'll need some extra horsepower to get them going though. Would recommend buying the matching PA3 amp to go with the SA3.
@@ZeroFidelity hey! thanks so much for your reply! will go ahead and order the UB5's and squeeze my budget to also get the PA3. Cheers!
Anyone paired 3030i with Cambridge Audio CXA61/81?
Wow, they're super cheap! I might get em!
I'm looking to get 4 3020i's and a 3090ci with a Yamaha RX-V6A. What's your opinion on them? Or should I get 3030i for the fronts?
Please let me know too… same situation
You need a bloody big shelf to call this a bookshelf speaker. I had to purchase the 3020i.
Rear ported meh ?
Unnatural boomy bass, like KEF LS50’s
I prefer transmission line
Still Q Acoustics price wise good value
Thanks Sean, always informative and excellent
At first I tought that this review was made by Steve Carell. Good presentation nonetheless.
That is some strong water Sean would that have ice in it lol
Placements important you said you had to tow them in what is not desirable for rear ported speakers, in the corners should be.? They should be 0.9 metres from the front wall measured from the front of the speaker, to get synergy time alignment from the port and the front drivers this is hard to achieve if they are pointing at an angle towards the listener but you didn't like them closer together pointing straight.??
Pointing them towards you will technically increase the distance between the rear port and the wall, although not by a significant degree. Pointing the speakers straight-out into the room resulted in a good sound, but the center image was notably less focused when set up like that (in my room).
@@ZeroFidelity yeah I hear you... You can achieve it at an angle but I'm not sure what the distance should be it all depends how far away from the side walls the speakers is and front wall, ideally you'd want closer to the back of the wall on a steep angle i would say, You have to measure the distance from the front wall and the distance to the side wall and to the speaker to get the right synergy, the angle of the Speaker off the two walls would difficult to achieve so not sure. You would need a baffle ideally on side of the speaker, work out the angle of the baffle to give you a straight line back to the speaker and listener.
Have you experimented with corner placement if you've got a desk say, using one corner of a room. on small speakers that should work quite well.
I have Q Acoustics Concept 20. Is this a upgrade?
他們性質不同
Yea
As desktop speakers, how the little 3020i compare to the PSB Alpha P5 ?
Pretty close to equal. I'd give a very mild edge to the P5 due to having less cabinet depth, which should get your ears just a little further from the drivers, which will help out with better driver integration.
Having owned all the 3000 line I think these speakers are great there very easy to listen to and easy to power, 2mtrs distance? Done that test but I found 8" is best because your buying these for the best and 2mtrs I found your losing that base,build is top grade,my round up is these are a master of nothing yet still tick all the boxes, comparing these to more higher speakers normally gets you more but I look at it opposite your buying new speakers upto your budget and these hammer everything upto 400£$ if this is your budget your going to be hard pressed buying anything better
how come you never review b&w speakers, are they good, how would you describe their sound signature compared to triangle are they lively?
From the review bro3 is the best right?forget about the price i think 150-200 dollar is not the big deal..
Best is completely relative. The Bro3's are the speakers that I'd live with of the three, but there are plenty of people who would go in a different direction.
@@ZeroFidelityI'm happy for the reply 👍👍😃
Zero Fidelity thanks a lot , i will go also with triangle , but with the little brother br02
You're best when you stick to products.
So the suggested amps he mentions are:
nad 316bee, morance pm5005, pm6005, ps audio sprout, Iotavx SA3, Cambridge AXR100. (around 8 minutes in)
I'm totally new to all this, that's almost too many examples. I'm close to just buying some sort of all in one unit. Anyway pasting the above in case anyone else is also checking out this video for the amp recommendations.
The 3030i’s are very easy to drive speakers with 88 db sensitivity. I use them with my old 20 watt/channel @4ohm mini stereo with no problem in a medium sized room.
399 a pair?!?!! What am I missing?
Why didn't you just abbreviate to 30i and 20i? After you have introduced them we would know which is which and understand the truncated title.
if only we had a word for what two zero and three zero together are.
I like the Elac’s, Triangle does not appeal to my tastes
