I bought myself a model B, Quad FM1 (mono) tuner to keep me occupied through the long winter evenings, and obviously it needs a little work (that's why it was cheap). The previous owner told me that it sort of worked, but drifted off station and didn't have very clear audio. Thanks to @martin...

I just purchased locally a Quad 33 and FM3 - as a "back up". Well that's my excuse. I already have a pair fettled and running with a Quad 303 amp. Besides, they came with a Quad wooden sleeve :-) There was a bit of a deal as the "FM3 did not power on" according to the seller. I tested the FM3...

For sale, both my Quad Artera power amp and REL sub. Both work as brilliantly, with no issues. The Quad is in black, fully boxed. My understanding is that the Artera power is a clean sheet replacement for the Quad QSP, which was an update to the older 909. I've heard a 909 and owned a QSP. IMO...

This has been relaxing in the loft for too many decades & needs to produce sound again! I need hands on help as I'm more mechanical than electronic in training! Have some test equipment but not the skill to use it! Mid-Sussex based, but willing to travel or whatever is preferred? I'm probably...

morning all I have a couple of different conversations going on this, and another forum, and Quad amps keep being suggested for my intended purpose (old Celestion speakers). Rather than clog up the other thread, hope no-one minds me starting this one which has a slightly different emphasis...

I am a bit of a Quad fan. I have stacked 57s (in need of restoration, working fine but with rolled off treble) and 2 sets of 63s. I've just finished (I hope) completely restoring the second of these sets, with new panels all round, and refurbed EHT units. They sound great! But it had been about...

I want explore classic amplifiers. I have been a HiFi enthusiast since early 1990s and have owns and enjoyed amplifies from Arcam and Naim. I am very found of the Naim sound but keen to hear the other brands as well. Now I want to explore classic amplifiers from Linn, Meridian and Quad...

Looking for some input from those with experience using SPUs. I have several questions I hope you can help with. I'll be using this in a Garrard 401 with a 12" Jelco 750 arm. 1. It seems that SPUs have a distinctive character. To those who prefer them, can you characterize how they compare to...

Hi all, I was wondering if any one has tried bi-amping with a quad 606 and a 306? I upgraded to a 606 a few months ago and before I sell (or shelve) my 306 I wondered if it’s worth trying and wanted to check how best to do it. I use a tisbury passive pre so I believe I can use the 2 outputs to...

I am looking to foray into tube amplifiers. I have owned Allnic and Remton valve phono stages, but never a valve pre, power or integrated. Looking for advice on a tube amp for a medium sized room. My vision is of curling up on the sofa with Junawoman, a bottle of wine and some late night...

Hi all - as I mentioned on I previous post I’m looking to upgrade my quad 306 and was looking at the 606/707/909 waiting for a good deal to come up. Does anyone have any thoughts on how the Elite QSp compares to these - are there any issues with the newer model or are they a step up in...

Hi I have the kit listed in the title unused and thought I might set it up in the spare room. I need some speakers though. They need to be small, bookshelf size, as they will need to sit on a bookshelf. Definitely no room for stands or floor-standers. I don’t really want to wall-mount them...
