A Quad 405.2 Power Amplifier for sale in superb condition.The case has a few hardly noticeable and small age related marks but is otherwise in excellent cosmetic condition.It received a full service and upgrade from Quad in 2009 and still retains its original and legendary quality of sound. This amplifier still has the power and finesse to bring the best performance out of some of the finest modern loudspeakers.From an online review, Audio Times, July 19 2014:First impressions were awesome. Hand on heart, my PMCs have never sounded so good. I used to wonder why some folks used the adjective punchy to describe quality audio reproduction and now I know why. I also used to be convinced that it was the loudspeaker which would totally dominate the sound quality in a monitor set up. I stand corrected.This most amazing and innovative classic power amp design brings a quality of monitoring experience which still leaves me wondering, and slowly understanding, what Ive been missing all these years. Stereo imaging and instrument placement are outstanding. The really hard to reproduce very dynamic instruments such as piano and brass simply come alive when amplified through the 405.I am also selling in separate listings the matching Quad 34 preamplifier and FM4 tuner both of which are in equally great condition cosmetically and functionally.NB: all the units are in the earlier classic Quad beige colour scheme and not the later grey.P&P cost reflects weight, value and insurance cost.UK Bidders only.SpecificationsPower output: 100 watts rms per channel into 8 (stereo)
