The design goal of the QR SE series has always been to offer the most advanced technology in a perfectly finished and proportioned high-end package. The sound is big, bold and dynamic, yet subtle and detailed when required and an excellent solution for all types of music.

The fascia plate of our Gold Leaf Air Motion Tweeter is machined from a single piece of Aerospace Grade Aluminium. It has been precision machined, glass blasted, brushed and then anodized in an attractive Tungsten Titanium Grey. It features a rose gold-plated dispersion mesh, which works as an S-Stop filter.

The new SE models all feature subtle, elegant, yet highly recognizable golden brass badges on the front panels and cloth grilles.

Our new highly specialized double cryogenic polypropylene tin flash copper capacitors are the result of constant listening, measuring, and improvement. They provide our AMT tweeters with the best possible conditions for sounding even sweeter, more detailed, and more open. The use of cryogenically treated pure copper wiring and Audiovector Nanopore damping material creates a smooth and natural musical reproduction.

The Audiovector Pure piston dual magnet bass drive units have the ability to work like a perfect piston over several octaves of the frequency band without the distortion normally found in aluminium/diamond drive units. This means music sounds warm, precise, and detailed, yet dynamic and musical.

Superbly built and finished, with a top notch ribbon tweeter fitted as standard no less. They have become my new benchmark in this price range.
