Hej, säljer här ett par mycket välljudande hörlurar från Quad, de har en liten skada på insidan av huvudbågen mot skalpen (se bild), för övrigt är de i perfekt skick. Dubbla par öronkuddar medföljer, alla originaltillbehör och förpackning finns kvar. Kan skickas på köparens bekostnad. Pris: 2500kr
Compared with the obvious alternative at kr4,350, this is a strong deal: at kr2,500, it sits well below the 25th percentile of kr3,483 and far under the median, so it reads as bargain territory rather than merely fair. For a used Quad Era 1, that’s the kind of pricing that usually leaves room for a service check, cabling, or a bit of patience while waiting for the right buyer.
The appeal here is straightforward: Quad’s vintage-era gear is well regarded for its smooth, refined presentation and solid build, and that makes it attractive if you want a classic hi-fi piece with real listening charm. At this price, the key upside is value; if it’s complete, working properly, and cosmetically decent, it’s the sort of listing that rewards a quick move rather than overthinking.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Quad, the venerable British hi-fi brand, traces its origins to 1936 in London, when engineer Peter J. Walker founded S.P. Fidelity Sound Systems, soon renamed the Acoustical Manufacturing Company. Relocating to Huntingdon in 1941 after wartime bombing, the firm shifted from public address gear to domestic audio amid post-war demand for superior sound reproduction. Walker's pioneering ethos—prioritizing "the closest approach to the original sound"—defined Quad from its early QA12 amplifiers, adopted by the BBC, to the iconic Quad I of 1953.
The brand excels in amplifiers and electrostatic loudspeakers, revolutionizing both categories. The Quad II power amplifier of 1953 introduced cathode coupling for vanishingly low distortion, while the 1956 ESL 57 delivered the world's first full-range electrostatic speaker, employing a massless film diaphragm for unparalleled transparency and transient speed. Quad advanced into solid-state with the 1967 303 and transistor designs featuring innovative "Triples" output stages, later expanding to integrated amps like the 99 series, moving-coil speakers, and modern electrostatic models such as the ESL 988 and 989.
Today, under the International Audio Group since 1997, Quad holds a prestigious position in the high-end market, revered by audiophiles for its unyielding pursuit of accuracy over trends. Its heritage components command vintage collector status, yet contemporary offerings maintain a niche boutique appeal among discerning buyers seeking refined, distortion-free reproduction that honors Walker's legacy.
