Description

Quad L-ite AV speakers and Yamaha AV receiver. Well under half original price.

N.B. The photographs are library ones as everything is packed following a house move.
Also, there are four satellite speakers, not just the two shown, and each has a cloth grill with the Quad name on it.

Quad, makers of the legendary electrostatic loudspeakers and some of the world’s best hi-fi kit also make conventional speakers - to their usual very high standard.

I’ve used Quad kit since my days as a music student many years ago so naturally chose their L-ite AV speakers.
These consist of a centre (340 mm x 135 mm 160 mm deep) and four satellite speakers (225 mm x 135 mm x 160 mm deep) - small monitors that can function as fronts and rears - all finished in a very high quality high gloss piano black finish. They can all be wall mounted as each has a standard threaded insert in the rear that will fit most specialist speaker brackets.

One very careful owner from new (I’m a fussy former classical pianist). These were used to listen to programmes recorded on our PVR and never worked hard - in a no pet household with the children long departed.
We have downsized and have switched to a simple Quad two channel stereo system with ribbon speakers to match our electrostatics. Everything is packed in the original packaging.

Originally this system cost eleven hundred pounds.

We are in Bishopstone - close to Salisbury.

From reviews:
"The L-ite system conjures up a big, beguiling soundstage peppered with lucid detail and dynamically-steered effects. I was taken aback by the clarity of the sound and its utterly immersive staging. With more cabinet capacity than your average compact speaker, the satellites dispatch action scenes into the room with power and scale, while their accurate effect placement and wide dispersion put you at the heart of the action."

"The centre channel in particular has a very precise interpretation of speech and treble detail. Dialogue is projected well into the room and clearly enunciated without any sibilance. For style, practicality and sound quality, these affordable speakers make a winning team."

"And like great Quad speakers from the past, the speakers had an uncanny ability to reveal subtle details—subtle vocal inflections and delicate fingering noises on stringed instruments— without overemphasizing them. There is a certain refinement about the LITE system, especially in the tricky transition region between the upper midrange and treble range, so that the LITE satellites demonstrate very good resolving power without overwrought transient edges or glare."

"This 7.2-channel amplifier delivers 90W per channel of power into 8 ohms, and is future-proofed with 4K ultra HD upscaling and pass-through via the HDMI connections.
There are six HDMI inputs in total, five of which are found on the rear panel (there’s one on the front too). The RX-V675 is compatible with 3D video and the single HDMI output is also equipped with ARC (Audio Return Channel) technology to reduce cable clutter between your amp and TV.
The USB port also supports FLAC and WAV files up to 24-bit/192kHz.
The RX-V675 has plenty of streaming options, from internet services such as vTuner radio and Napster, via Apple AirPlay and DLNA support to traditional AM and FM tuners, complete with 40 presets.
That presentation lends itself to stereo music really well, too. Whether it’s streaming over DLNA or playing directly from an iPod using the USB connection
The RX-V675 is as fantastic to listen to as ever – particularly with streamed music.
The RX-V675 is a powerful and thrilling amplifier for the money."
