Quad - 33-303-FM3 Hi-fi set

Quad 33 - Excellent classic British pre-amplifier, originally designed to work together with the Quad 303. Very robust construction, entirely analog, it has inputs for phono (record player), tape, radio/tuner and auxiliary. It features volume control (stereo volume potentiometer), balance control, tone controls (bass and treble), filters intended to eliminate noise, and an output designed to feed directly the Quad 303. As connectors it uses the famous DIN plugs, instead of modern RCA. It is characterized by a musical, smooth and natural sound, with an excellent midrange.

Quad 303 - It is a highly regarded stereo power amplifier, particularly known for the quality and naturalness of the sound it produces, more than for brute power. It is a stereo power amplifier, class AB. It has a power of 45 W RMS into 8 ohms, with a frequency response of about 30 Hz - 35 kHz. With a signal-to-noise ratio of about 100 dB, it weighs 8.2 kg. It features the famous output stage "Triples", one of the most striking technical characteristics of the 303.

Quad FM 3 - It is the classic tuner of the same family, and was designed specifically to work with the 33/303. It is a simple device, but quite competent. Its weight is about 2.7 kg. The frequency response is 20 Hz - 15 kHz +/- 1 dB, and the band goes from 88 to 108 MHz. This iconic trio is perfectly functional, in excellent condition. It is becoming relatively rare to be able to gather these 3 components, which were originally designed to constitute a system.
