QUAD L SERIES BUNDLE in Birdseye Maple - Like New Includes:Quad 22L (2) Quad 21L (2)Quad L- Centre (1) http://www.quad-hifi.info/public/quad_l_series_brochure%5B3136%5D.pdf -QUAD 22L SPEAKERS - Product DescriptionThe 22L is the flagship of the range. This tall, floor-standing model with ultra low distortion twin KEVLAR drivers produces a fast, dynamic bass, extending to around 30Hz at the lower end for real impact and a compelling sense of scale. Bass detail is excellent, tracking precisely every nuance of the deepest double bass while, maintaining an area of open space around instruments.Voices and instruments sound natural and occupy precise locations in the huge soundstage for a real sense of being there at the live recording. Even in complex orchestral pieces, the instruments can be clearly identified and followed, retaining their own characteristics and personality.A heavily braced cabinet reduces internal resonance to minimal levels and the high level of detail and precision exhibited by all the drive units makes for a speaker with both neutrality and resolution - a worthy transducer for the audiophile and music-lover alike.The gold-plated terminals offer the facility of bi-wiring. Even if your amplifier has only one set of loudspeaker terminals, significant sonic advantages can be gained by using a good quality bi-wire cable, linking them at the amplifier end, but separating them at the loudspeaker end. This reduces the intermodulation effects and improves the openness and clarity of the speaker still further. The lustrous piano finish is applied to each speaker by hand over a period of seven days, each of which involves applying a coat of lacquer which must then dry at an ambient temperature before being cut and polished. The final coat is polished to a high gloss finish to produce one of the finest finishes seen on any loudspeaker in this class.-QUAD 21L SPEAKERS - Product DescriptionIn true tradition, the Quad 21L dynamic loudspeakers offer levels of detail, neutrality and stereo imaging beyond anything else in their category. Following in the footsteps of their famous ESL brethren, the Quad 11L set new standards of performance at their prices. A wide frequency response and incredibly accurate drivers produce a sound-stage so vivid and coherent you can visualise each and every sound in three dimensional space. The cabinet volume and drive unit size are much larger than the 11L to produce a wider frequency response in the bass region plus a 6.5 KEVLAR bass/mid driver replaces the 5 unit. In most other respects, they are similar to the 11L. Elegant and simple, the uncluttered design has a remarkable dynamic range for such a small speaker - a consequence of the accuracy and speed of the long-throw driver under pressure. Build-quality is, as you would expect, superb. Each cabinet is made from reinforced 18mm MDF, with a choice of four real wood veneers. Each cabinet then has seven coats of piano lacquer applied, with each coat drying for a full 24 hours before being cut and polished ready for the next coat.The gold-plated terminals offer the facility of bi-wiring. Even if your amplifier has only one set of loudspeaker terminals, significant sonic advantages can be gained by using a good quality bi-wire cable, linking them at the amplifier end, but separating them at the loudspeaker end.

That is not to abandon their hi-fi roots, but to enable those with good multi-channel systems to enjoy the Quad L series in all its glory - the Quad L centre is tonally and frequency matched to produce an exceptional surround sound speaker system capable of reproducing not only film sound-tracks with spectacular clarity and precision, but also of reproducing the growing number of multi-channel music formats.The lustrous piano finish is applied to each speaker by hand over a period of seven days, each of which involves applying a coat of lacquer which must then dry at an ambient temperature before being cut and polished.

Quad 21L Floor-mount Speakers (Rosewood). About a year or two back I acquired a beautiful set of Quad 21L 2-way tower speakers. A few hairline scratches he and there, mostly on the top of one of the speakers, otherwise in real nice condition. Dual taps (LF and HF) to support biwiring and biamping. These originally sold for about $1,200, so keep that in mind if considering an offer. Specifications: Frequency response: 35 Hz to 24 kHz Rated impedance: 6 ohms +/- 15% Resonant Frequency: 40 Hz +/- 6 Hz Output SPL: 88 dB +/- 3 dB Power Input: 125W Maximum SPL: 88dB Crossover frequency: 2.2 kHz Weight: 14.5 kg Dimensions: 205mm x 780mm x 263mm I did determine shortly after acquiring them a flaw in one speaker traced to its tweeter. Absent available replacement from Quad, I looked into alternatives and settled first on the Dayton Audio ND25FA-4 which has a structure closely matching the Quad original, then to a higher end SB Acoustics SB21SDC-C000-4. I replaced the other tweeter too so the two speakers will match in sonic signature. The new tweeter frames are just a bit larger than the opening, so I had to shave 1-2mm around that opening to get it to fit flush. Photos show the results. The FFT readings were done in a mixed-use room, not a proper listening room, using pink noise, and yet the results are quite good. Here’s information about the new tweeter: https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/soft-dome-tweeters-sb-acoustics/sb-acoustics-sb21sdc-c000-4-dome-tweeter/ The following reviews might prove of value, though of course they reflect the original tweeter, not this one which I think is better. But I still have the originals, so make your own judgement, http://www.goodsound.com/equipment/quad_21l.htm http://www.audioreview.com/product/speakers/floorstanding-speakers/quad/21l.html Currently available only for local pickup in Washington, DC. Shipping cost would probably be prohibitive. I have everything: factory box and packing material, spikes and rubber floor protectors, even the original white gloves to protect the lacquer finish.
