The Quad L-ite is the new home cinema surround package from Quad which retails at just £999.99.
The Quad L-ite is the first compact cinema system from Quad-A classic 5.1 channel configuration, which can be expanded, to 6.1 or 7.1, with the addition of extra Satellite speakers.
Using the same unique technology and styling that has made the Quad L-series one of the most popular audiophile loudspeakers in the market today; the L-ite offers a sparkling performance exceeding that of most full-size systems. Combined with a subwoofer that offers microprocessor controlled filter circuitry, and remote control operation, the satellites blend seamlessly to create a full audio spectrum without any of the loss through the crossover region which plagues other models on the market. The Quad L-ite is a system you can really be proud of. The clean styling and dazzling piano gloss lacquer adds a real touch of class. Each of the seven layers of the gloss are applied by hand and polished to a high sheen before the next layer is added.
The quality of the finish gives the system an exquisite style to match the incredible performance. Technological advances, combined with Quad’s skill, experience and unique production methods have created a Home Theatre system with an acoustic performance that is a rare find.
Available in Black, Cherry, Rosewood and Silver.
These look amazing and they sound like they will be a great set of speakers… but how big are they?
They are bigger than they look in the picture, but you have to class them not only as a surround sound system but as a piece of furniture. The following measurements are in mm.
Subwoofer: 485x288x425
Centre: 135x340x160
Satellite: 225x135x160
Hope this helps
These sound like really top quality speakers with lots of detail put in to the making of them
Just seen and heard the L-ites demo at the What H-Fi show in London ( 4/11/05 ).
Verdict – Great, my search is over!
Hi Mutley,
What an excellent choice for a brilliant speaker system.

If you like the sound of the L-ites but are just wanting a set of loud speakers, we found a great review on Hi-Fi Insight, for the Quad 11L’s.

Hi, could you please let me know, how much are QUAD L-Ite 5.1 in rosewood?
I think surround sound systems give us cinema experience in our own home. That’s why it becomes ever more popular and affordable. Right ?
even higher end stuff that is maybe 2/3 years old is now affordable on ebay
i always use surround sound equipements with the Dolby label and SRRS~,”
home theater systems made by Panasonic are the best in my opinion, they sounded great’`;
