New To The Naim Mu-so Family - The Naim Mu-so Qb
/The new Naim Mu-so Qb is a true feat of sound engineering. Housed in a small glass filled polymer cabinet the five driven drive units have been aligned with specific angles and offsets to create perfect left / right dispersion of the sound to create an exceptional stereo image from such a small box. The drive units comprise of two micro fibre dome tweeters and two custom made mid range drivers utilising rare earth magnets and copper capped poles for greater accuracy. These drivers are all driven by their own dedicated 50W amplifiers. The bass is handled by a custom made drive unit driven by its own dedicated 100W amplifier. This is coupled with two side firing passive radiators. This bass arrangement offers exceptional bass frequencies for a cabinet of such diminutive dimensions.

Over all Sound Quality
On listening we have found that the Naim Mu-so Qb really does offer exceptional sound quality for an all in one system of such diminutive dimensions. The top end and midrange are exceptionally open and clear and it really does offer a sound stage that belies its size.
The bass response is truly deep and surprisingly accurate.
Having listened to many all in one systems that purport to offer true full scale sound from a small box the Mu-so QB really is the first one that really comes up with the goods (The exception being the bigger brother the Mu-so)
The Mu-so Qb is available with a range of coloured grilles so you can even tailor it to your room decor and is available now for demonstration. An audition is highly recommended.
