Quad Amplifier and CD Upgrades Upgrades are available for a range of Quad amplifiers and the Quad 66 and 67 CD players. In all cases the upgrades consist of replacing key components of the amplifiers and CD with more modern equivalents. In most cases this involves replacing operational amplifiers, signal path and power supply capacitors and de-coupling capacitors. In some cases key resistors are replaced with very low noise types, especially around very sensitive input stages. For the CD players we will also fit a super stable DAC clock from Net Audio. All the upgrades are designed to significantly reduce the noise and distortion produced by the components used originally. Although no one questions the design of these amplifiers, their performance is compromised by the choice of components used at the time of manufacturing. Sometimes this may have been driven by cost, in other cases today's component types were just not available. These upgrades reveal the excellence of the design of these amplifiers and we are sure you will be amazed at their performance once upgraded. Even Quad themselves are now producing a version of the 99 series (the Elite series) which uses 'audiophile' components to produce the best possible sound.
