What does Q mean in speaker specifications?


I have never seen that listed before on any speaker. Can you explain what the Q means on these Falcon speakers? THX

 

 

Falcon Acoustics is pleased to announce the re-introduction of the Falcon Acoustics Q7 “Complete@Home” Loudspeaker system. Designed by Malcolm Jones and sold by Falcon for many years, the updated Q7 features the same Falcon B110 and T27 drive units as used in the Falcon LS3/5a in a specially extended LS3/5a-type cabinet to produce an optimum Q=0.7 system with extra bass compared to the LSA3/5a (+2dB @ 50 Hz). Factory built options supplied built by Falcon, fully checked and tested are available.

Thanks for the detailed information! I asked because I have never seen the Q   listed in any other speakers specs!

@mrteeves

I am on the fence on buying them. I would love to give them a try. I’ve owned many LS3/5A type speakers including the Harbeth P3ESR that I prefer over the other ones that I have owned!

BTW, those Falcons ( kit ) look like a real bargain. I have also owned the Falcon IMF-100 transmission line and they was real nice! I sold them to my nephew and he loves them!

I would like to thank you and all the others that explained what Q means! I have never seen it prior to looking at the Falcon Q7 that I just ordered!
