It was a very rich man's toy.              ** Really ?              What sort of car could be bought in the UK in 1953 for under 30 pounds ?              For example, the Morris Minor sold for about 400 pounds at that time.              Here is an advert for the Quad I and its control unit from Wireless World       published in February 1953 - just prior to the appearance of the Quad II.              http://www.meridian-audio.info/public/quad_i_adv%5b3605%5d.pdf                     ....
