Thanks for the comments, Alan,
As I noted, I've never owned any Quad gear, but over the years have repaired a few of their products, and have always found them to be good performers. Being 76, I doubt if my hearing would notice the difference in performance if I upgtaded, besides which, though it may be sacrilege to say so, I've never been a HiFi Fanatic. My speakers, for example, are a pair of Sharp 3-way ones whih I kept when the SG500E had to be abandoned, though I replaced the original woofers a few years ago with a pair having rubber roll surrounds (The foam surrounds on the original woofers had disintegrated as these things do) To me my set up sounds quite good, whether listening to radio, Cassette, CD or Vinyl records. The latter are played on my TEAC PX300 DD Turntable, b.t.w
