This model is often compared with Paradigm Reference Studio 20. The sound in treble and mid-range area is very similar, with Dahlquist going a little deeper on the bottom end. I can vouch for that as I also owned pair of Paradigms 20 v2.

They sound superb. Great cosmetic condition as you can see from the pictures. There’s little plastic missing around the bass driver screw on one of the speakers but it is purely cosmetic and does not affect the sound in anyway. No scratches or dents, grilles are very clean. Also included are brass jumpers for single-wiring.

Although there may be some British influence on the sound of the QX6, the appearance is very Canadian. The vinyl-clad, rectangular enclosure measures 14 1/4"H x 7 7/8"W x 11 1/2"D and comes in either a black oak or cherry finish. It’s a compact, fairly lightweight design, weighing in at 15 pounds. As is expected today, the finish is to a very high standard. A close look at the enclosure reveals tightly fitting edges and flawless veneer. Overall fit’n’finish are very good, and I certainly have no quibbles given the price.

The driver complement is a 6 1/2" polycone woofer and a 1" aluminum-dome tweeter. Like many similar designs, the QX6 is ported out of the rear, more or less behind the tweeter. The crossover frequency is 3.5kHz, sensitivity is said to be 87dB, and the impedance is a reported 6 ohms. Most moderately powered amplifiers and receivers should have no trouble with the QX6es.

Sound "Smooth and…surprisingly robust- and weighty-sounding"; "the QX6es give a much more voluptuous presentation"; "even the most discerning of listeners will agree that this speaker has a pleasant overall balance."

Features British and Canadian design influence; two-way that uses a 6 1/2" polycone woofer and a 1" aluminum-dome tweeter; black and cherry finish options.
