Falcon Acoustics “Complete@Home” Q7 Loudspeaker Kit Released
Falcon Acoustics has announced the introduction of the “Complete@Home” Q7 Mini-Monitor: the second system in the “Complete@Home” series of loudspeaker kits for home assembly.
The Q7 Mini-Monitor represents a wholesale production upgrade to the original Q7 kit, designed by Malcolm Jones and sold by Falcon for many years.
Complete@Home
The new Q7 self-assembly project is supplied complete with Italian full “production grade” Baltic birch ply cabinets specially extended beyond LS3/5a size to produce an optimum Q = 0.7 system, having extra bass (+2dB @ 50 Hz) compared with the LS3/5a.
The company’s new Complete@Home model also features the Falcon B110 and T27 drive units employed by the Falcon LS3/5a, and a Falcon 23.2 factory-assembled pre-wired crossover, mirroring the original Malcom Jones design but arranged on a modern multi-layer board. Cabinet baffles are veneered in a choice of natural Walnut or Rosewood, and the cloth grilles are magnetically secured. High quality Falcon speaker terminals complete the Q7 specification.

No soldering is required in the assembly, all tools are provided, and construction is guided by an online instruction manual and YouTube video.
Made in the same factory as the renowned Falcon Acoustics BBC LS3/5a and with similar voicing, the Q7 adds further bass extension to the LS3/5a’s magical clarity and insight. In as little as two hours, a system of unrivalled provenance will be ready to deliver a lifetime of musical enjoyment.
Front grille upgrade and Q7 Silver Badge crossover upgrade options are also available.
