QUAD L2 Series - Manual (Page 4)

4
L 2 is our new entry point into
loudspeakers, but these are by no means
‘budget’ loudspeakers. Using advanced
composite driver materials, rare-earth
magnets, advanced alloys, quality
terminals and finished in a choice
of high-gloss, piano-lacquered real
veneers, they are fully representative
of Quad’s commitment to quality and
performance.
Voiced for a clean, natural mid-range
performance with crisp, clean detail
and a taut, punchy bass performance,
L
2 series loudspeakers excel with well-
recorded, complex music scores. The
layering of each instrument or vocal
texture is clear and precise, allowing
the listener to pick out nuances
previously overlooked. Providing a
‘window’ on the recording, the natural
tone of the recording is fully preserved
to create a real insight into the original
performance.
Our manufacturing facility is possibly
the world’s most advanced in terms
of loudspeaker production. From
raw material to finished product, the
entire process occurs under a single
roof. Diaphragm production, voice-
coil winding, magnet assembly, PCB
printing, crossover manufacture, die-
casting of chassis, terminal plate,
terminals, dispersion guide, even the
spike assembly all take place in the
same building.
Each cabinet is crafted from a
eucalyptus based 25mm MDF, using
computer controlled precision routers,
before being assembled. Every cabinet
is unique, finished with a real veneer
– not reconstituted wood pulp as other
manufacturers use – with seven coats of
piano lacquer – each applied by hand,
then dried at ambient temperature
for 24 hours, then finally hand cut
and polished before the next coat is
applied. These are fine furniture grade
finishes using the same techniques as
are used to produce the world’s finest
pianos.
Whatever your musical tastes, or
listening objectives, be they traditional
2-channel or AV, the L
2 -series
loudspeakers will delight and deliver
flawless performances, unequalled
reliability and remain a stunning
centrepiece of your audio system for
many years to come. Backed with
the support of our famous service
department, as with all Quad products,
the L
2 series represent a very worthwhile
investment.
