Product Description

The QUAD 33 and 303 stand as unmistakable icons in the world of high-fidelity audio—a legacy we carry with immense pride. As enduring favorites from one of the industry's most influential brands, these components remains the gold standard for what audio equipment should be: a perfect harmony of performance, reliability, striking industrial design, and pure musical soul.

The new 33 keeps the distinctive "Quad Grey" finish and the signature orange accents, but it has been refined for the 21st century.

Chassis: A premium machined and anodized front panel with an all-metal body

Interface: While the original used push-buttons, the new version features an illuminated LCD screen (with retro-style dot-matrix text) and backlit orange buttons.

Controls: It features a high-quality motorized ALPS volume knob and a row of three endless rotary encoders for fine-tuning sound.
