Quad - FM Tuner

Quad FM Tuner (Classic British Hi-Fi)

Elevate your vintage audio system with this beautifully preserved Quad FM Tuner, one of the finest examples of British broadcast-quality engineering from the golden age of hi-fi. Originally introduced by Quad in 1961 and refined through the 1960s, the Quad FM quickly earned a reputation for exceptional low-noise performance and superb musicality—qualities that remain highly sought after by collectors today.

This unit delivers true high-fidelity FM reception, designed to partner perfectly with classic Quad valve and solid-state amplifiers. Its minimalist front panel, precision-machined controls, and unmistakable industrial styling reflect Quad’s philosophy of “the closest approach to the original sound.”
