Re: Quad ESL 57 buying advice, please

Not added to this in a while . Glad to see Paul has finally added stands to his Quads they just make things better . Now recently I got the change itch I think all of us get and decided I wanted a valve power amp to use with Quads . Managed to source a really well sorted and fully refurbished Leak ...

Re: Antonio's 'back home' system

Andrew Jones is not only a really nice man but he does know his way around Quads of all types . It is however noticeable that having the choice of any model he has ESL 57,s as his own speakers . I am sure you're will sound very good indeed after whatever work they needed . Would interested what Andr...

Re: Many may already know this but I did not - NVA Amps

That is the same as the one I was using . I do agree though it is different results for different systems as the ATL worked fine with no issues in my three way active system which by chance also has NVA Amplifiers in it . But now not sure if I will use it anywhere may just put it up for sale .

Many may already know this but I did not - NVA Amps

I have been having issues with distortion for a few weeks and I first noticed it on the right speaker . After much messing about I had decided that one of the Quads had a problem panel so made arrangements to get it back to AQuadthing Audio . Then today I noticed that the left speaker was starting t...

Re: Interesting eBay listings.

Latterman I saw this too but I did wonder just how good they would sound ? I was very tempted to use for the bass in my three way active and then use the P30 pair I have for mid and treble .

Since installing the clock and really enjoying what it does for music i have gone even deeper down the rabbit hole with that white tail twitching just in front all the time . The same person that gave me the link to the Leo Bodnar Clock then went on to explain that the clock is a 50 ohm output while...
