 First established in 1936, Quad is one of the UK’s oldest and most prestigious audio manufacturers still in production today. Renowned for its award-winning audio electronics and loudspeakers, Quad stays true to its ideology as the closest approach to the original sound.

Integrated amplifiers cleverly combine both pre and power amplification stages. Responsible for attenuating speaker volume and input selection control from varying sources (CD players, network streamers, Blu Ray, etc), integrated amplifiers are a popular all-in-on choice for all listeners.

EXCELLENCE - REFERENCE - CONVENIENCE

Platina delivers reference-grade performance in a design that balances sonic authority with tactile elegance. From dual mono amplification to a class-leading digital stage, it’s a luxury convenience machine for listeners who demand fidelity without the clutter.

BESPOKE BALANCE

Collaborating with the renowned Würth Elektronik group, Quad developed bespoke capacitors exclusive to Platina. Tuned by ear and purpose-built to support its scale, grip, and resolution, Platina achieves a level of audio quality no off-the-shelf component set ever could.

MONO MASTERY IN STEREO

Platina’s 2 x 200W into 8Ω (300W into 4Ω) Class AB dual mono design separates the signal/power paths for each channel. This significantly reduces cross talk to preserve image integrity and unlock sweeping dynamics, even under complex speaker loads.

CIRCUITS UP CRAFTSMANSHIP

Platina’s five-year development helped deliver a 630VA toroidal transformer and 44,000uF per channel filtering. In addition to this incredible power, every element was selected by ear and engineered in-house to ensure Platina delivers reference level audio that exceeds the listener’s expectations.

A REAL PHONO... INBUILT

Platina’s phono stage isn’t just included — it’s thoughtfully engineered. With selectable gain, MM/MC support, impedance control, and a JFET input design for ultra-low noise, it’s a serious inbuilt analogue front-end for vinyl enthusiasts who refuse to compromise.

ELEGANCE MACHINED INTO EVERY CURVE

With a luxurious anodised aluminium fascia, an elegant 4.3” full-colour display, sculpted heatsinks, and a wonderfully tactile, centre-weighted control dial, every surface, angle, and contour of Platina reflects the same meticulous intent behind its reference-grade internal architecture.

HIGH FIDELITY MEETS HIGHLY FAMILIAR

Platina blends high-fidelity audio with everyday living — offering seamless TV integration via its HDMI ARC input. It’s a quiet gesture of convenience, made without compromise, for those who value movie night almost as much as they do their music.

READY FOR ROON

Roon software is the world’s most refined digital ecosystem, consolidating stored digital files and streaming platforms into a single, searchable interface with bit-perfect resolution, seamless integration, and ultra-low jitter playback. And Platina is Roon Tested and ready to pair with serious network streamers.

RESOLUTION RENEWED

Platina features ESS’s flagship ES9038PRO DAC, dual master clocks, your choice of 352.8kHz or 384kHz upsampling for low-res PCM streams, support up to 768kHz and DSD512, plus five user-selectable reconstruction filters. Platina’s digital stage isn’t just highly capable –– it’s uncompromising.

TAILORED TO YOUR LISTENTING

From MM/MC phono and balanced XLR to HDMI ARC, USB-C, coax, and optical, Platina adapts effortlessly to any source. And with balanced and unbalanced outputs, you could seamlessly integrate a reference subwoofer for the ultimate 2.1 listening experience.
