James Loudspeaker QX1020 - QX Style Dual 10" Forward Firing Subwoofer

Product Overview

The James Loudspeaker QX1020 is a QX-style dual 10-inch forward-firing subwoofer engineered for high-output architectural bass in dedicated home theaters, larger media rooms, and commercial AV spaces. As a passive forward-firing subwoofer, it mounts in-wall or in a soffit to direct bass into the room while maintaining a low-profile architectural footprint. The dual-driver QX1020 delivers more output than the single-driver QX1010 for rooms that demand greater low-frequency impact.

Product Description

The QX1020 uses dual 10-inch drivers in a forward-firing configuration, installed into wall framing or a custom soffit so output fires directly into the listening space. The two drivers raise output capability over the single-driver QX1010, making it suited to larger theaters and media rooms that need more headroom while preserving a concealed architectural appearance. Because it is a passive subwoofer, it requires external amplification, giving the integrator control over crossover, level, and routing within a distributed audio or dedicated theater rack.

For pre-construction installs, James offers matching brackets — the QX1020PB pre-construction bracket and the QX1020PBF flush-mount pre-construction bracket. A single-driver version is offered as the QX1010. For the full range, see the James Loudspeaker collection.
