Description
Artera Solus
The amazingly well-specified Artera Solus by Quad is a multi-tasking hi-fi system packed into a single sleek and sophisticated box.
Within you will find a CD transport, a DAC, a pre-amplifier, and a power amplifier, all in a single compact chassis, with extensive connectivity options including Bluetooth connectivity.
A crisp, clean aesthetic both evokes Quad’s past and looks forward to the future, with a textured aluminium front panel, thick glass top and CNC-routed heat sinks on either side. The housing provides a rugged structure that resists interference from external vibrations, while the fascia of each player incorporates an intuitive touch-sensitive control, contributing greatly to its sleek design.
Each Artera Series model fuses modern digital connectivity with signature Quad amplification technologies. Styled with grace, influenced by classic Quad systems with a modern twist, each Quad Artera system is a beauty to look at, while demonstrating a life-like detail in every track.
