Audio Physic MIDEX RQ
Confident Dynamics and Finest Precision – the New MIDEX RQ
Audio Physic introduces the new MIDEX RQ – now featuring RECOTec and Q-SET
The current MIDEX RQ is equipped with our RECOTec driver technology, first introduced with the CARDEAS RQ. The woofer, midrange and tweeter all feature the new RECOTec diaphragms, benefiting from Audio Physic’s latest generation of driver technology. The specially developed diaphragm technology combines high rigidity with excellent internal damping. The result is even more precise, detailed and transparent reproduction across the entire frequency range – from the deepest bass to the finest treble.
The new driver technology not only delivers greater precision and detail, but also gives the MIDEX RQ a significantly wider dynamic range. The finest differences in level and the smallest musical nuances are reproduced with equal ease as powerful dynamic shifts. Quiet passages remain delicate and expressive, while loud and energetic moments are reproduced with impressive authority and control. The result is an exceptionally immediate and vivid musical experience, with a clear distinction between the quietest and loudest moments of a recording.
The current MIDEX RQ also features our Q-SET technology. A switch on the rear panel allows the bass response to be adjusted in two stages to suit the speaker’s placement and the acoustic characteristics of the listening room. Particularly when positioned close to a wall or in a corner, Q-SET enables the bass response to be optimally tailored without compromising the characteristic dynamics and precision of the MIDEX RQ.
The MIDEX RQ also incorporates numerous sophisticated Audio Physic technologies in its construction. The cabinet uses our proven sandwich construction, with numerous elements made of open-cell ceramic foamserving as internal bracing. This high-tech material consists of around 85% air while being exceptionally lightweight and extremely rigid. Its large surface area also acts as a diffuser for sound radiated toward the rear. This allows the cabinet to be both reinforced and effectively damped without sacrificing valuable internal volume.
The Honeycomb material already used in the CARDEAS is also incorporated. Offering comparable stability, it is less prone to resonance and lighter than conventional MDF.
As with all Audio Physic loudspeakers in the REFERENCE LINE, the crossover networks and connection terminal of the MIDEX RQ are consistently mounted with a focus on minimizing vibration. The terminal is equipped with high-quality nextgen® WBT binding posts.
For a secure and stable foundation on virtually any surface, the MIDEX features a robust outrigger construction. Thanks to the integrated M8 thread, the outriggers can be upgraded with our VCF V M8 Magnetic Plus feet. These provide even more precise imaging while simultaneously protecting delicate flooring from scratches.
The current MIDEX RQ combines state-of-the-art RECOTec drivers, an expanded dynamic range, flexible Q-SET bass adjustment and proven Audio Physic cabinet technology to create a loudspeaker that makes music even more immediate, differentiated and alive.
