I've had 3 GD KT66 Retro vales fail on power up (on both my Quad IIs, so I assume it's not a problem with the amp) the first about 2 minutes after the warrenty...

Jonathan, In my experience the biggest deviations from tonal accuracy derive from the loudspeakers coupled with their interaction with the room. Can you...
I am susprised that you have experienced three failures. When I worked for PM Components, after rigorous testing our failure rate was very very low. You may...
... Hi Richard Ive never laid my hands on a 44...not yet at least! So i am curious in what ways you find the controls of the 44 superior to the 34. I presume...
Dave, Thank you so very much for assisting me with this issue. I do all of my listening in our bedroom, which measures 17' 7" x 15' 3" x 9' (LxWxH). My amp...
Jonathan Tonal problems are almost certainly due to the speaker/room combination, as David suggests. I think that the best way to address your problem is by...
Hi Mark I like the 34 and it's proportions are more pleasing to the eye than the 44, but the 44 feels more solid. The tone level controls have a more solid...
I simply used the Aux i/p for the CD player. It was loud so I did try an in-line attenuator supposedly made just for the Quads but I felt it filtered the...
You can use one of the tape inputs for CD and switch the level to suite, you can put any of the modules in any slot though the tape monitor buttons only work...
Hi Richard Thanks for that reply mate! Whilst i find the 34 a "lightweight" piece of kit..... due to its low mass.... Once it is in place on ones rack ( table...
Hi Mark Dark grey and even darker grey, does sound rather sombre! :) Dare I say it, I actually use the 34 as part of my television system. It consists of the...

Hi Richard Amazing how things work out. Went to meet an aquaintance who said he had a 34. It turns out he actually had a 44! He was most kind to loan it to...
I have had a 306, a 707 (got 3 of them) and now have some 909s. I have always prefered the Quads to other amps I have tried. They seem to have a more realistic...
... The 34 has three filter buttons which can be used in various combinations. The 44 has the famous variable-slope filter which can be varied continuously and...
hi all what is the best amp to drive quad 11L speakers i've been told a 306 is fine 405 is better nothing but a 606 will do i dont want to blow the windows out...
Hello Neil I've never heard the 11L, but have had several 306s, have a 99 and a 606. The 306 is a great little amp, but it sounds coloured in comparison to the...
While working in my workshop - I accidentally disconnected the ground cable from my Turntable to the Quad 33, while it was playing. This resulted in a...
Obviously the 303 was grounded via the mass-lead and the 33. I would say check TR1 & TR2 and/or replace them (by MJ15003). Also check the PSU voltage which...
Hello Marc What Stefaan said is correct, check output and driver transistors. It may be a good idea to get hold of a copy of the service manual as there can be...
Thanks Richard. Indeed, I'll be sourcing a 303 Service Manual next. Does anyone know if this available on-line as a PDF - or do i need to go the route of...
Stefaan, Thanks for the pointers. Looks like this will be a project for the summer vacation. I'll let you know how it goes. Marc ... From: Stefaan Verdonckt...
