Hi Brent,
Thought i would send an email about my initial impressions….absolutley fantastic….as soon as i put the headphones on and as soon as it went thru the power amps either way it is superb…classical music is stunning i mean takes your breath away……jazz stunning, reggae, folk, opera, it just gives and gives. I am not in the position to comment on other systems , my knowledge is very limited but i think it is giving a very good balanced sound…..i had the headphones on for 6 hours and my ears where not fatigued…..definately worth every penny…..i think Quad have really let themselves down. My friend, a quad 77 owner ,wants to compare it to his side by side, but he was very impressed too. I cannot impress on you Brent how happy i am with this player….if any enquiring customer is umming and arring about whether or not to go for it…get them to speak to me any time
P.S just played Janis Joplin’s first album unbelievable ….you definately are no fly by night outfit…..you really do what it says on the tin
All the very best

Quad Upgrade
Brent upgraded the Quad 99 CD player and Quad 909 power amp. I was pleased
with the Quad‘s original sound hence me purchasing them. The upgrades have
lifted them both to another higher level. It’s a cliché however I am
hearing sounds I have not previously heard.
I am listening to familiar music from the last 50 years and the sound is
audibly clearer and cleaner, although instruments and vocals are expected
they surprise me with their sharpness and suddenness.
Music is giving me shivers and goose bumps.
My son summed it up when he stated ‘Wow its clear isn’t it’
Thanks Brent.
