Immersive sound for music, movies and gaming
Whether listening to music, watching TV or movies or gaming, the M20’s advanced driver technology is designed to produce low-distortion, accurate but highly immersive stereo sound.
High-resolution wireless stereo experience
Hear your favourite music as close to the artist always intended: in full stereo, high-resolution fidelity. Featuring Bluetooth 5.0 for an ultra-stable connection and aptX HD wireless technology, users can wirelessly stream high resolution audio (up to 24-bit/48kHz) from any compatible device such as smartphone, tablet, laptop and network streamer, while listen to their favourite tunes streamed from popular music services such as Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, Apple Music, Amazon Music and Qobuz.
The flexible M20 is just about the latest wireless technology. It features enough inputs to let your TV, games console, set-top box, turntable or anything else you fancy join in the high-resolution stereo experience. There’s also subwoofer output in case you need to really shake the room. No matter what you want to listen to, M20 can handle it.
Shaped to sound better
Featuring award-winning cabinet technology, every element of the M20’s design is specified to deliver an optimal audio performance. The beautifully sculpted cabinets use Q Acoustics’ proprietary P2P (Point to Point) bracing to support the parts of the enclosure that need to be stiffened. The result is an exceptionally rigid cabinet that eliminates internal standing waves to improve the focus of the stereo image and give the soundstage more accuracy than ever before. The grille’s curved contours are also designed to disperse any tweeter activity, keeping unwanted reflections to a minimum.
Always in the right place
It’s easy to set-up the M20 so the system is always performing to its maximum, no matter where it is in the room. As well as being able to designate the powered speaker as either the left or right channel (to make accessing mains power as simple as possible), there’s also an EQ switch to let the system know if each speaker is positioned in a corner, against a wall or in free space so its digital sound processing can work its magic and optimise the audio performance. And with stands and wall-brackets also available, M20 will always bring your music, movies and games to life wherever it is placed.

The sound from these speakers are exceptional even at high volume. Well worth the money. Dont hesitate to buy them, best eve
Incredible sound took my breath away! Give them a few listens to bed in.
I bought these to replace an old technics amp and some Tannoy V1s for my turntable. I was concerned about moving from a passive speaker to an active. I was also concerned in having limited EQ controls. Well I didn’t need to worry as the sound immediately was amazing compared to old set up. The clarity and soundstage was immediately better and the bass is more than ample for my living room. I have the bass selector switched to the middle position and it’s perfect.
Was unsure purchasing these without hearing them first but I needn’t have worried,they sound amazing.
I wanted something to replace my old system and these fit the bill really well.
They have plenty of options for connections,I use the optical with my CD player/hardrive,the line in for my Echo and the Bluetooth for my turntable,all work seamlessly and to these old ears sound great.
My only one slight criticism is when adjusting the volume there is a delay.
Mine arrived in a dented box but thankfully the speakers are well packaged.
Wonderful for the price they blow much more expensive speakers off the wall.. great sound.. good bass.. easy to connect up.. look good..
if you want to ditch the amplifer this is a very good alternative.
Haven’t tried the blue tooth options as yet.. just listening afresh to my CDs!
These speakers work beautifully wireless; however, when I connected them to my desktop via the aux or USB B, the volume was not as grand as when connected via Bluetooth. Why is this?
Thank you
Was unsure I could live with their appearance a few feet away from me for however many years I have left but the walnut ones I eventually purchased look fantastic from the front & all other directions!
But just as important their performance is amazing, adding improved sonic clarity & accuracy to TV, turntable & Blutooth compared with my previous Tibo 3.1’s.
Add to that the ease of set up & great connectivity & what could be better?
Oh, & I love them aged 67 & my 19 y.o. twins do too!
Bought these besides a pair of Klipsch The Fives speakers (899) for comparison as I had settled on either of those two speakers for my PC setup (music, Netflix and gaming) after reading loads of reviews. I fully expected to like the Klipsch more but in the end I kept the M20.
The Klipsch simply have too much bass, even if cut down. The M20 seem to sound right just out of the box. Whenever I switched between the two, I was amazed by the wide soundstage and the clarity that the M20 provide. In direct comparison after switching I sometimes thought they have a slight harshness to them but that feeling went away after listening for a minute. They very much benefit from connecting a subwoofer though. I’m running a Q Acoustics 3070S and I’m very happy with the overall sound. Rounded off with great connectivity and a sleek design, you can do nothing wrong with these speakers for the price.
My only gripe is the volume control. The Fives have an amazingly responsive wheel for volume control which makes it super easy to set them exactly where you want them in an instant. The M20 have buttons and sometimes I feel I need to press them a lot when switching between music and Zoom calls. Some volume steps also seem to be uneven jumps. But I can forgive this slightly annoying detail in the face of the value these speakers have to offer.
As tiles brilliant bit of kit sound amazing with Music, movies and games. Remote not the best and led and buttons in the wrong place. Sound stage is perfect and kind better than any sound bar with movies.
These are a bargain, powered Q Acoustics speakers, with built in dac, always impressed by Q Acoustics speakers, they always produce good sound and these are no exception, and have subwoofer output if you need more bass
Ottimi diffusori attivi! Bluetooth si connette immediatamente. Connessioni analogiche e digitale ottica. Presente , a differenza di modelli simili, connessione USB di tipo B che consente, attraverso un PC, lo streaming ad alta risoluzione.Gran suono e ottimo rapporto qualit/prezzo.Spedizione rapida e imballo impeccabile.
Venivo da una soundbase Canton, della quale ero molto soddisfatto, ma che nell’ascolto musicale, per ovvi motivi, mancava di ampiezza del fronte sonoro. Quindi cercavo comunque delle casse attive, con possibilit di connessioni varie, bluetooth, ottico, etc… Ho valutato queste casse e un prodotto similare della blasonata Klipsh. Alla fine ho optato per queste soprattutto per motivi di estetica e di dimensioni dato che sono inserite in un ambiente piccolo. Infatti sono molto compatte, e la loro linea arrotondata ne ammorbidisce ulteriormente l’impatto visivo.
Piccole ma toste. Lavorano molto bene. Prediligono volume non troppo basso, ma normale, e con la opportuna calibrazione del bass reflex non fanno sentire troppo la mancanza di un subwoofer. (Che comunque io consiglio lo stesso perch pu dare quel quid in pi che ne aumenta la gradevolezza a volume da appartamento senza dover spingere troppo). La riproduzione musicale molto buona. Le uso in bluetooth con un giradischi Teac o con Spotify dal cellulare. Per il pairing davvero nessun problema. Collegate alla TV con cavo ottico aiutano la percezione degli effetti sonori, ma come pensavo, difettano un po’ sul parlato (d’altronde non una sound bar). Comunque migliorano di molto l’audio “piatto” della TV LCD.
Le finiture sono eccellenti, i comandi intuitivi. Unica nota un po’ stonata: il telecomando in dotazione, che lavora egregiamente, non ha tasti retroilluminati e presenta una grafica grigio su nero che ne limita molto la visibilit. Un piccolo dettaglio che infastidisce un quadro generale di assoluto rilievo nel suo genere. Nel complesso sono molto soddisfatto.
After years trying different desk based systems with my Mac, this has turned out to be the best ever. It might be big, it might be expensive, but it sounds fabulous. I am overjoyed at the way it presents both music and movies. This is it. Now I just have to save up so I can buy another set for the tv downstairs.
Recommended to me by a trusted HiFi expert. Read reviews from experts on What HiFi, Tech Radar etc and these kept coming out top for my requirements. They’re quite large for desk top speakers so if you want them for a small desk they’ll maybe too big. They are reassuringly heavy. I use them mostly wired to a turntable and sound is great. Clear neutral sound with enough bass for me. Has a connection for a sub if you feel the need for your windows to rattle. Sound easily fills a normal size sitting room without being turned up full pelt. BT pairing is straightforward and quick. Has a blue light for BT pairing on top of speaker which is logical. You can also use remote to pair etc which works beautifully and again feels weighty and good quality. I’m very happy with them. I bought from local store instead of Amazon as they had 50 off on Black Friday. Price went back up quickly everywhere after a couple of days so feel I got a bargain.
