Description from the seller

Very beautiful Quad hi-fi system from my collection, including the FM4 tuner, the 34 preamplifier (with MM phono input module) and the 306 power amplifier in an original Quad rack.
These devices presented together represent timeless beauty.

This Quad system will surprise many with its ability to deliver current to drive any type of loudspeaker with very musical sound.

It delivers an astonishingly truthful bass register, a midrange typical of the brand, for a listening experience full of vitality.

It was tested again before sale and works perfectly. It was serviced three years ago and some capacitors were changed for high-quality audio models (see photos).
Excellent cosmetic condition with minor signs of use due to its respectable age…

For the condition, please look at the photos; they form part of the description.

All other items shown in the photos are not part of this offer.

This set will be shipped with the main power cord and the two intermediate 30 cm extensions for the two other components.
Please note that to avoid inconvenience and damage during transport, the set will be dismantled and each unit as well as the rack will be individually wrapped in bubble wrap. The buyer will simply reassemble it using the eight attached screws.
Fast and careful shipping in well-protected packaging with insurance.
