Quad

Founded in 1936 in London by the hi-fi legend Peter Walker, QUAD’s story is one of engineering discipline, practical design and an enduring commitment to what the company has long called “the closest approach to the original sound”.

Originally named ‘S.P. Fidelity Sound Systems’ and later renamed ‘The Acoustical Manufacturing Co. Ltd’ in the same year, Walker’s earliest work centred on amplifiers and public-address equipment, laying the technical foundations for the hi-fi products that would follow.
