      From: phil_a@tpg.com.au              ** Hi tubeheads,              The Quad I amplifier ( released in 1951 ) pre dates the Quad II by a couple       of years and look like essentially the same design. See schem:              http://www.saturn-sound.com/images%20-%20cct%20dia/quad%201%20po       er%20amplifier%20-%20cct%20components%20voltages%20etc.jpg              I cannot find any pics on the web.              Did it look much like the Quad II except for the larger EL36 valves ?              Did it use the same transformers ?              In 1951 in the UK, there were no FM broadcasts, no stereo and the just about       the only records available were 78rpm and pickups were crude to say the       least.              The famous LEAK " Point One " amp had been around for a while.              But what the heck did folk actually do with these amps ??              Just sit and admire them ?                            ....
