QUAD 21L or 22L opinions please punch them in

Regarding my system - I purchased the best integrated I could get in the area with my limited budget - the NADC350. I've been very happy with this amp but I feel these speakers would like more juice, someday I hope I can afford to give them the power they deserve :)

My complete system details are available under my Audiogon system info.

Hi everyone,

I've thinking about buying a Quad HT system and I am doubting between the following 2 options:

- 2 Quad 22L as front speakers + 2 Quad 11L as surrounds + Quad central speaker (I will initially not go ahead with the subw.)
- 2 Quad 12L as front speakers + 2 Quad 11L as surrounds + Quad central speaker + subw.

The room is around 280sqf and the actual listening area is around 140sqf. It has a rectangular shape.

I'm afraid the 22L may be a bit too big for the room and that maybe the 12L + subw is a better option. However, I always felt that with two front speakers such as the 22L I could avoid the subw. and also avoid potential problems with neighbours.

Can anyone give me some advice? I would also like to have your feedback regarding a good receiver/amp for que Quads.

Many thanks to everyone.

I would go with two 21Ls in front and the 12Ls in the back and at that point see if you need a sub.

The new Quad Sub is getting good reviews in the british press right now but you may not need it once your 21Ls burn in.

I think you posted on AA as well, i'm nathan_klassen on AA.

If your going Piano black let me know I know of an L-centre in mint condition for a good price.

Thanks Vaystrem,

I'm going for Piano black but unfortunately in I now live in Madrid and maybe transportation could be an issue.

I also got a fairly good deal here in Madrid for the whole set (22L(2)+11L(2)+L Centre) for €2000 (around 1435 sterling).

Many thanks.
