Quad II or QUAD II 💫🏆💫?

 

I had my second pair of Quad II double-checked and corrected some “idiophiles” mods and tweaks made by previous owner.

Back are the superb sounding Philips/Mullard “Mustard” and “Atom” caps and the paper in oil previously “updated” to those generic, ugly “orange” stuffs… only the color makes me to think about “the other” orange scumbag 😳😱🤯😳 and those weird out-of-specs black electrolytic caps.

The Chinese ceramic tubes sockets and Mundorf’s resistors weren’t so bad and have been left for a slightly more analytical overall sound, as these amps will feed the mighty Gotorama 2.0: yes, they’re THIS good, fast, smooth, musical and superbly detailed.

The amps are now back to their classic factory-setting at 16 ohm, perfect for the Goto’s.

Here is a before & after pictures, make your comments and consider that a good and an average job requires same time!

Now, let’s enjoy QUAD II, almost as Mr. Peter Walker projected and built them, almost 70 years ago!
