Quad VENA II system pack
The system pack, consisting Integrated Amplifier of the Vena II, in Quads traditional and accompanied by a pair of S1 speakers in a black ash finish, this system is sonically engaging and true value for money.
Integrated Amplifier Vena II
The Vena II’s small footprint (compared to many amps in its class) allows flexible positioning and ensures the amp slips tidily into a range of environments.
The Class AB power amp section now has an upgraded power supply, a 200VA toroidal transformer lying at its heart. This is followed by 2x15000uF reservoir capacity (30000uF in total), helping the amp to maintain firm control of the music whilst enabling excellent dynamic range.
Vinyl lovers will appreciate the addition of a phono stage for moving magnet cartridges – a high-quality, low-noise, JFET-based circuit with precise RIAA equalisation.
Headphone users are also better catered for. The original Vena included a headphone output, but this was connected to the amp’s main output stage rather than to a specialised headphone amp circuit. The Vena II incorporates a dedicated headphone amp with current-feedback circuitry, its gain bandwidth and high slew rate delivering a more dynamic, detailed and engaging performance with all manner of headphone types.
Simplicity is key to the Vena II’s outward design. Quad’s design team selected Bluetooth wireless streaming, with support for the aptX codec, to ensure easy pairing with all manner of smartphones, tablets, PCs and Macs – expertly implemented to deliver an adroit balance of quality and convenience. The Vena II feels like a traditional hi-fi amplifier, with its uncomplicated front-mounted controls and simple remote, yet its specification is state-of-the-art.
Copious cable connections enhance the amp’s flexibility. Inputs for digital sources comprise asynchronous USB and three S/PDIF sockets (one coaxial and two optical), while digital outputs are provided in optical and coaxial flavours. Analogue signals are catered for by three stereo RCA inputs – two line-level plus the new MM phono input for turntables – while pre-out sockets permit the addition of an external power amplifier.
Main Features Integrated Amplifier:
- Weight Integrated Amplifier, kg - 7,5
- Input impedance - 10 / 47kohm (Line/Phono)
- Chip Model - ESS Sabre
- Audio DAC - Sabre32 ES9018K2M
- Supported formats - 32-bit/384 kHz, DSD256
Shelf acoustics Quad S-1
Quad S-1 speakers are the most compact in their range and are ideal for small rooms. These speakers belong to the monitor class and can be used not only in the home audio systems of music lovers, but also in studios.
The woofer in the speaker has a diameter of 100 mm and is equipped with a diffuser made of woven kevlar, fixed on an elastic suspension. To provide the necessary internal volume while maintaining a compact size, the speaker body is made quite deep.
Another signature feature of the Quad S-1 is the True Ribbon ribbon tweeter, which has a precision design and is equipped with a powerful magnet. For this emitter, the separation filter was completely redesigned, which is set to a frequency of 3.2 kHz.
The bass reflex housing provides a significant boost in bass, tuned to minimize humming and other frequency distortion.
Main Features Quad S-1 speakers:
- Weight (1 column), kg - 5,2
- Height, mm - 285
- Width, mm - 156
- Depth, mm - 240
- Frequency range, Hz-kHz - 58 - 20
- Treble speaker size, in mm - 12 x 45

Quad
The history of Quad is one of technical achievement in the field of sound reproduction. It is a story that began with the Quad 1 amplifier, which brought the benefits of 15 years knowledge and experience in professional audio and industrial products to the task of making the most accurate domestic audio amplifier of its age.A few years later, in 1953, the product which set the standard for amplifiers was the Quad II Power Amplifier, the time of Queen Elizabeth’s Coronation and the year in which Mount Everest was finally conquered. This amplifier pioneered the principle of cathode coupling through the output transformer to reduce harmonic distortion to almost negligible levels. Such was its clear superiority that this model remained in production for 18 years. Three years later, in 1956, Quad demonstrated the first true full-range electrostatic loudspeaker. This remarkable product (known later as the ESL 57) used a virtually mass-less plastic film as a moving diaphragm between two charged plates. Compared with moving coil loudspeakers, the ESL 57 was free of unwanted colourations and distortions. This landmark product remained in production, virtually unchanged, for 28 years.
