Product Description
The QUAD 3CDT
Core Philosophy: "The Closest Approach"
Quad markets this unit under their long-standing mantra of delivering an unadulterated signal. By removing the DAC and analog stages from the chassis, they eliminate potential electrical noise and interference that can degrade audio quality.
Key Technical Specifications
