Details

The Quad Artera Stereo Power amplifier produces 140 Watts RMS per channel and uses patented Current Dumping technology to function efficiently under demanding conditions. Use of balanced XLR inputs and strong connections between Artera Stereo's bow and strings work together to provide a remarkable signal-to-noise ratio.

Quad Artera Play Stereo Power Amplifier stays true to QUAD's performance philosophy, ranging from Input Terminals to Transformers, each driven towards maximizing power, stability, and sound quality. The amazing blend of textured aluminum front panels, CNC routed heatsinks on the sides and a thick glass top are perfectly synchronized to create a rugged but home friendly power amplifier.
