The Quad 405 amp, which is 100 watts per channel, has places on the circuit board to plug in 2 resistors (1600 or 1800 ohms if I recall correctly) to limit the power. With these resistors in place, the amp is perfectly safe with the 57s and sounds surprizingly good. I used this combo for several years until I switched to a highly modified Dyna Stereo 70. Another great amp (if you can find one) is the Bedini 25/25.
Recommended amp for Quad 57.
Yes I searched the archives but didn't get much. So....
A friend of a friend just inherited his pop's old Quads. He was wondering what amp would be good to drive these old doggies. Don't know his price range so any suggestions welcome. General idea's like SS vs Tube or whatever would be helpful. Thanks.
