Default Non-ES speakers closest to electrostatic sound?

"Stewart Pinkerton"
"Phil Allison"

"MINe 109"

There was at least one post that put them
down as "Chinese" speakers having nothing to do with Quad.

http://www.quad-hifi.co.uk/lseriesworks.htm

According to Quad, all parts are designed "in-house".



** Yep - "in house" means in Shenzhen, China - where the Chang
brothers factory is located.

The Changs own IAG ( International Audio Group ) which also owns the
Wharfedale brand - guess where they are made now.


Try not to be such a **** here as you are in RAT.



** Go to *straight into hell* you vile lump of pommy excrement.



When Quad say they are designed 'in house', that means in the UK, where
the R&D
facilities are situated.



** Shame that none of Peter Walker's old team are to be found there.

Shame all the components are made in the Chinese factory.


Yes, they are *manufactured* in China, but to a UK design suited to UK
ears and rooms.



** It is a Chinese made speaker - badged "Quad" to dramatically increased
the price and fleece the gullible.
