THREE STRONG SCANSONICHD Q SERIES OF LOUDSPEAKERS LAUNCHED

The ScansonicHD Q Series Loudspeakers are a new ‘Mini Raidho’ loudspeaker series from the Danish HiFi brand.

The sleek cabinets of the new ScansonicHD Q Series Loudspeakers are directly out of the Raidho vision and philosophy that a very rigid constructed cabinet does not have to be heavy or ugly. The ScansonicHD Q Series makes this Raidho philosophy available at a more accessible price class.

SCANSONICHD Q SERIES DRIVERS

The tweeter of the new ScansonicHD Q Series Loudspeakers is a quasi-ribbon tweeter. The woofers are all made of one piece of moulded woven carbon fibre. These are bespoke drivers designed and developed by the Raidho engineering team, which is exactly what is needed to keep up with the very fast ribbon tweeter.

SCANSONICHD Q SERIES CROSSOVER

The crossover of these new Scansonics is built on the same principle as in the world of Raidho, for “coherence, dynamics and live sound”.

MADE IN DENMARK

All of these products are designed and built in Denmark, by the same people who build Raidho loudspeakers. All the drive units are 100% Raidho/Scansonic design and invention and are not off the shelf parts.

“All in all the new Q series has been built with the same passion and precision as the Raidho loudspeakers”.
