The Concept 40 5.0 Speaker Package contains a pair of Concept 40 Floorstanders, the Concept Centre and a pair of Concept 20 Bookshelf speakers.
The Concept 40 is Q Acoustics’ flagship floorstanding speaker. It is the newest addition of the acclaimed, award winning Concept range and, like so many Q Acoustics models, delivers an unparalleled sonic performance at its price. We firmly believe the Concept 40 sets new standards, even outperforming many speakers in higher price brackets.
In common with the Concept 20, its award-winning ‘little brother’, the new Concept 40’s extraordinary soundstage, dynamics and sheer musicality is achieved by incorporating its bespoke drive units into a ‘GelcoreTM Construction’ cabinet. This State-of-the-Art, ultra-low resonance and beautifully lacquered cabinet design allows the drive units to perform at their very impressive best.
The low distortion drive units incorporate powerful oversized magnets to ensure wide dynamics and an ultra-fast transient response. The elegant tripod stand allows the Concept 40 to achieve perfect rigidity and floor contact which further enhances its performance.
Even the speaker’s attractive aluminium facia plate is not purely decorative. It’s part of an assembly which clamps a butyl rubber sheet to the front panel to reduce cabinet resonance still further.
With 90dB sensitivity and a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, the Concept 40 is easily driven by any good quality amplifier. This striking floorstanding loudspeaker is available in either high gloss black, or high gloss white finishes.

The ‘Concept 20’ is a special loudspeaker which goes beyond anything that Q Acoustics has achieved before. It’s a beautifully styled product which we confidently believe delivers a level of sonic performance previously thought impossible at its price point.” To achieve this extraordinary performance, Q Acoustics’ design team applied scientific methodology and advances in technology to address
the problem of cabinet resonance; long recognised as the single biggest hurdle preventing speaker designers delivering true ‘high end’ performance at a reasonable price. The ‘Concept 20’ proves cabinet resonance need be a problem no longer.* Incorporating a ‘cabinet within a cabinet’ design, its inner and outer enclosures are bound together by a bespoke adhesive which never quite sets. This configuration (known as Gelcore™ construction) allows the kinetic energy generated by the drive units within the cabinet to be dispersed as heat and preventing them colouring and degrading the
speaker’s musical output. Combine this new cabinet design with the Concept 20’s advanced, high dynamic, low distortion drive units and the result is a loudspeaker which, at its price, is nothing short of sensational.”
