The Quad L-ite Satellite and centre channel all use drive units derived directly from the L-series models. The bass cones are made from woven KEVLAR® for strength and speed, mounted on a curved leg cast alloy chassis and a high-tension spider for tight control of movement.

The 25mm soft dome tweeter has a high excursion for improved dynamic response, being driven with an in-house designed and manufactured ‘rare-earth’ magnet assembly. To keep composure even under heavy loads, an aluminium voice coil has been used. Because we design and manufacture everything in-house, every element of each drive unit is designed in synergy and manufactured to meet strict quality criteria. This ensure superb reliability and a lifetime of consistent performance.

Whilst tonal continuity across the LCR (or front channels) of a home cinema system is indeed essential, the loading of audio across the channels tens to be un-even, with the centre channel undertaking most of the vocal work. To optimise the design of the Quad L-ite system, the centre channel is uniquely equipped to handle this frequency range, having an extra bass driver. In most systems, this could leadto horizontal ‘lobing’ of the soundstage due to phase interference from this arrangement, but because of the close coupling of the drivers in the quad system and the nature of the KEVLAR® weave, this is virtually eliminated, leading to a superbly smooth dispersion characteristic, complete tonal continuity and sufficient dynamic bass ‘attack’ to reproduce the vocal range realistically and with startling clarity.
