I've been waiting for these new Quad 33 + 303 amplifiers for a long time, when they were a twinkle in the design team's eye. Now they are available and causing a stir @ £1199 each unit. The original 33 + 303 were introduced by Quad as their first solid state amplification back in 1967. They were revolutionary in circuit design, performance and stunning styling, quickly establishing themselves as 'reference standard'. Used by numerous professional studios, the BBC, engineers and enthusiasts looking for top quality and reliability. Because of the popularity, the delivery time was 6 months and I just couldn't wait to get my hands on them. I got a loan and paid £108 for the pair when the retail price was £98 but once heard, I just couldn't wait. Now the new 33 and 303 are here. Designed by Quad's 'dream team', the circuitry takes design clues from the originals but using modern, higher spec components for a superior sound and performance. Styling is more modern but is unmistakably Quad 33 + 303. The wait is over, the Quad 33 + 303 is here. |
