Key features

  • Convenience of integrated voice control via Amazon Alexa.
  • Powerful high quality fitted audio amplifier, pair with two or four Q Acoustics in-ceiling or in-wall speakers.
  • Can form the heart of a smart home and multi-room audio system.

Designed specifically for installation

E300A is a simple and elegant solution, the main unit and speakers all fitted in the ceiling during building work or renovation, while it is also suited to pre-fitting into new builds or extensions. A certified fire-resistant rating of 60 minutes means E300A maintains a fire barrier without the need to fit a separate fire hood. Once installed, E300A is a discreet, zero-clutter solution to your smart home audio requirements.

Make E300A the centre of your smart home

E300A is suitable for installation in any room in the home and is just as capable of powering a single-room set-up or expansive multi-room system as it is driving an entire smart home habitat. Integrated Amazon Alexa voice-control is activated by three far-field microphones, ensuring 360-degree coverage across even the largest open-plan living space. Use E300A’s power of Amazon Alexa with other compatible smart home products such as light fittings, thermostats, and door entry.

Just like many other Alexa-enabled products, E300A features an LED light ring to confirm voice interaction - and its surface-mounted light sensor ensures the LED ring is set to the correct intensity depending on the ambient light of your room.
