Restored, upgraded and improved legendary Quad 22 Stereo Tube preamp. It
comes with the rare Phono Module and Tape modules that plug into the
back of the preamp. All restoration and improvements were done by a Pro
Audio Tech. The Quad 22
had some its original parts replaced as they were out of spec. The Audio
Tech used audiophile grade parts. This preamp derives power from the Quad II power amplifiers and needs to be used with Quad II power amps, as they were made for each other. It has vintage
European and USA tubes, 2 EF86s and 2 12ax7s. It is all point to point
wiring, with the incomparable late 1950s UK Quad design, craftsmanship,
attention to detail, parts quality, unique features, performance and
musicality. It sounds superb, open, detailed, dynamic, extended,
involving, transparent, quiet, smooth, natural and very musical. The
Quad 22 has unique filtering and several different Phono equalization
settings. The included module is for the more current and common RIAA
equalization. As mentioned, this preamp is updated, restored and improved. It comes with the Quad 2 amplifer original cables and original power cord for the 22. It
has some scuffs and small discolorations, nothing too serious,
faceplate looks good. The shipping cost includes safe packing,
insurance, prompt shipping and tracking number. Buy with confidence, see
my feedback. Good listening, SonnY :) The pictured outboard power supply is not included. Only the updated and restored Quad 22 Preamp is included, with cables and modules.
PS: I do have the matching restored nice Quad II original tube amps that are listed on Reverb as well.
