The new Quad electrostatics are getting rave
reviews. So who is planning to buy? Anybdy actually
receive a pair already?

I'm not sure they're much different from the 'old'
Quads! but all I know is what I read in the brochure.

The structure around the drivers is much more solid
and well-built, mostly. This does translate to
deeper bass.

I came close to buying a pair of the smaller ones
when I still had a pair of Quad II Classic
monoblocks. But, with a low-powered SET, I'm more
interested in things like Audio Note AN-Es or those
Yamamoto Sound Crafts with the Altec-Lansing drivers.

It's the patented, day-glo Marc Phillips' "You never
lived until you heard a Yammakwaski Nightengale power
amp driven by a Kruzenjammer power amp" schtick.


It's the patented, olive-drab Arny Krueger's
"Waaahhhh...I can't afford anything good, so I'll attack
everyone who has better taste than me!" schtick.


It's pretty ironic watching trailer trash like Marc
trying to play the class card.


And again, it's pretty ironic to note that you call me
trailer trash, when the equity in my house over the last
three years would buy yours outright.


Easy to say, hard to prove. BTW is that equity your's or the bank's?

LOL!
