    Default For Sale: Quad Artera Play

    Quad Artera Play (this is the original version, not the new + version), combined slot-loading CD player, DAC and preamp in an attractive, compact package. I bought this as a very low use ex-dem unit from Radlett Audio last October, so it's had very little use and is in excellent condition. Remote, mains cable, original packaging. £850 plus carriage.

    Very nice.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I heard and used this sample once, with the Artera power amp and balanced connections. I thought it was lovely and a huge step up in musical terms from the (too) straight-laced Elite preamp of the earlier generation.

    If you want a genuinely musical and involving good looking source and the facilities suit, I'd recommend it highly. Quad still have great service backup too..

    Just sayin'

    Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me
