New in this week from a long term Coherent client has just completed his new system, so we have a pair of the award winning Quadral Chromium 8 full range speakers i the high gloss back finish.

Plus the Peak hifi isolation kit which did make a very positive difference to these great speakers. The superbly integrated Quadral ribbon tweeter marries up with the Titanium coated polypropylene diaphragms which provide the highest linearity and a high-fidelity sound.

Timing-wise, this is a mature design rather than a current-gen buy, so the question is really value versus condition, not chasing the newest release. At £1,450, it sits far above the typical used GBP market here: median £475, with the upper quartile at £535. That makes the asking price clearly ambitious, not a bargain.
That said, these are well-regarded speakers and, when properly set up, can deliver scale, detail, and very good dynamic drive that many listeners still prize. If the pair is genuinely excellent condition, fully original, and comes with stands, grilles, or boxes, that helps—but it still needs to be a special example to justify the premium. I’d want strong evidence of provenance and flawless operation before paying this much.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Quadral emerged from Hanover, Germany in 1972 as the consumer audio division of the All Group, initially operating under the name all-akustik before adopting the Quadral brand in the late 1970s. The company's international breakthrough came with the introduction of the TITAN loudspeaker in 1981, establishing Quadral as a serious contender in premium audio. Today, Quadral operates under the ownership of Loxone, acquired in 2020, which has positioned the brand at the intersection of high-fidelity audio and intelligent building automation.
Quadral has built its reputation primarily as a loudspeaker manufacturer, with particular acclaim for its ribbon tweeters and flagship Aurum series. The company's engineering approach emphasizes clarity, tonal balance, and sophisticated acoustic design—hallmarks that quickly elevated the brand to the upper echelon of the hi-fi world upon its launch. Production of key components, including the renowned Aurum ribbon tweeters, remains based in Hanover, underscoring the brand's commitment to German manufacturing standards.
Quadral occupies the high-end to upper-midrange segment of the consumer audio market, positioning itself alongside other respected German speaker specialists. The brand appeals to discerning listeners who prioritize acoustic performance and engineering heritage over mass-market accessibility. With over five decades of experience and a track record of consistent quality, Quadral maintains credibility among serious audiophiles and collectors, though it remains less widely recognized than some larger international competitors.
