Quad 909 review

Size is not everything here, as the 909 delivers a dynamic punch of sound to your ears with great clarity and quality

Even-handed sonic delivery with strong dynamics and fine resolution ; good build ; compact

Nothing of any significance

This classic power amp design is a class performer that’ll work superbly in a wide range of systems

QUAD 909

What can I say it's powerful very well made and the perfect replacement for my 405

The only bad point if I can think of one is the switch at the very back of the amp. Other than that i have no complaints it's a very good amp.

EXCELLENT ALL ROUND PERFORMANCE

Driving Quad ESL988 speaker pair from Cyrus source is just brilliant. Delivers everytime.

Reliable, smooth sound.

Lack of power switch on front panel.

A WELL-EARNED REPUTATION

The indestructable 909 does what any amp should aspire to do: simply sending through to the speakers a signal as pure as you're going to get at this price range. With loads of power in reserve to boot.

Power ; Unstrained, unforced sound: you know there's always more in reserve ; The sound's neutrality and accuracy ; Quad's reputation for technical excellence, longevity and customer-focus ; 909 is built like a tank, and will probably outlast you

Mains plug provides a surprisingly poor-fit to rear socket. (Quad failed to replace the mains lead.) ; Amp is very heavy so site it carefully ; Amp is extremely revealing so beware poorly produced/recording music ; Sound is very neutral: there can be...

EXCELLENT PRE/POWER AMP COMBO

5 stars, without thinking or hesitating. Had Rotel RC 1070 and 2 x RB 1050 (biamped my speakers) but ONE QUAD 909 drives my speakers much better than 2 Rotels. Do not get me wrong Rotels were good but Quad is in a different league...

The best midrange at this price level. Bass and highs are excellent as long as sensitivity of the 99 pre amp auxilary inputs (A1, A2, A3) is set to 100mV (not 300mV and 700mV which is also provided as settings). Can go wrong with this.

None that I can think of.
