I remember these. They and the contemporaneous Rapaport Amp had a penchant for blowing up, as I recall. I think I saw one of the later on ebay recently!
Retro Hi End Trivia Question
Does anyone remember the "Quatre Gain Cell" amplifier?
While thinking about various configurations for my latest "new" system, I found myself daydreaming about the "high end" room of my local dealer when I was still in school:
as I recall, a Thorens turntable with an Infinity black widow arm, the Apt Holman preamp, and Dahlquist DQ 10s and Dahlquist subwoofer driven by the mysterious "Quatre Gain Cell".
It sounded great -- the type of sound and music and fun that got me into this addiction where I am still unsuccessfully chasing the first high....
I would be interested in buying one of these amps for fun to put in a bedroom, but I never see or hear about them.
