Description

The Quad S-1 Speakers combines advanced Kevlar-coned bass/midrange drivers with a specially designed ribbon tweeter, supplying effortless detail to capture all the nuances and passion of the original performance.

Quad S-1 Speakers

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Quad S-1 Speakers can well be said to have achieved that goal as the new ribbon treble unit is cleverly matched. Through complex crossover networks. to Quad’s state-of-the-art bass-midrange ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌drivers. So that each single loudspeaker of the range conveys all the nuances and the passion of the original performance.

High Density Particleboard

Beautifully presented with rounded top edges at the front and rear. Each speaker cabinet uses a sandwich construction of alternate layers of MDF and high-density particleboard to reduce panel resonance to below the level of audibility.

Real Wood Vaneers

The look, aesthetically, is classic Quad but at the same time subtly refreshed and initially offered in black or sapele mahogany wood veneers. However, by the autumn, these would be complemented by exquisite, hand-laquered piano white and piano black finish variants.

Latest Technology and Materials

The new ribbon unit developed for the Quad S-1 is a thoroughly modern affair, utilising the latest techniques and materials. The ribbon itself is a sandwich construction, making it robust enough to handle high-powered amplifiers. These passive, rear-firing bass units support the main drivers to extend bass response down to 35Hz. Whilst maintaining an accurate and articulate rendition of the instruments.

Closest Approach To The Original Sound

Peter​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Comeau, Director of Acoustic Design at Quad’s parent company IAG, said, Quad S-1 Speakers are like the musical instruments that reveal all the beautiful inner details of any music style played on ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌them. However, the performance is full and dynamic, even from the tiny S1. Which is an outstanding example of Quad’s dictum. The Closest Approach To The Original Sound.
