Few names in audio can claim the pioneering achievements of QUAD. From inauspicious beginnings in the English country side in 1940s, QUAD grew to prominence on the wings of innovation and a singular focus - sound reproduction so accurate and true that it represented the closest approach to the original. That focus became an obses sion that has fascinated generations of purists even since its inception. Since its acquisition by the Intern ational Audio Group (IAG), QUAD has thrived. By combining the QUAD philosophy with modern and highly efficient engineering, manufacturing and distribution, IAG has written a new and compelling chapter in the QUAD book; literally. A brand so revered that it spawned a truly impressive book chronicling it's histor y. From this foundation comes the QUAD Industrial range of products. Professional audio products designed for use in a variety of fixed installations from background/foreground music right up to sound reinforcement and entertainment applications. Products that embrace the historical commitment to accuracy and precision while leveraging modern efficiency in manufacturing and distribution. The results are quite extraordinar y. QUAD Industrial is your best resource for premium quality loudspeakers and electronics for fixed installations in retail, hospitality, commercial, government, worship and other facilities that demand performance and exceptional value. IAG's manufacturing strength draws on over one million square feet (100,000 sq. meters) of factor y space dedicated to the highest quality at the lowest possible cost.

15 The most demanding sound reinforcement applications in Performing Arts facilities, Worship spaces, Theaters and Meeting facilities call for the QUAD Industrial Forum Series. A range of two-way point source sound reinforcement speakers built around QUAD's unique DuAlign drive units with only one objective; the ultimate in natural sound reinforcement. The key to the unprecedented accuracy and natural response of the Forum series is the QUAD DuAlign TM drive unit. By placing the compression driver on the rear of the woofer's chassis, the high and low frequency acoustic center-points are perfectly aligned, resulting in smooth resp onse that is just not available from discrete horn/woofer systems. Phase response remains flat, ensuring that the harmonic content of the original source is rep roduced faithfully. Because the job isn't done until the speaker is installed, each Forum model (except floor monitors) is supplied with a unique st eel mounting bracket and suspension hardware kit. This bracket allows for direct wall mounting or three-point suspension, requiring only fasteners to be supplied. Forum cabinets are solidly constructed of high-densit y MDF and are finished in ei ther White or Black. Heavy gauge foam-backed steel grilles are factory fitted and color matched to the cabinet.
