„The name reflects the contents: with its PLATINUM-series quadral has created real high class pieces which can be integrated nearly into every living space due to their felicitous look and perfect workmanship. And how pretty speakers can sound is proven as well in multi-channel as in stereo where the system enthused us thanks to its lively way, great stage- and surroundreproduction and extremely deep bass response.”

First class
Test case: Outstanding
Grade: 1,1

„PLATINUM M5 is a true highlight created by quadral, …but also finds itself rightly in the upper region of our top classes… a speaker was found which takes home an almost unlimited live-atmosphere and both classic friends and eager concert hoppers will have their fun for many years.”

Top class
Value for money: very good
Grade: 1,2

Sechs Lautsprecher wurden getested, aber es gab nur einen klaren gewinner. Die Quadral Platinum M4!

(…), now the tables have turned. We are getting accurate loudspeakers from Germany whilst producing inaccurate ones here (…in  UK)

Most UK cabinets of this price will have a vinyl veneer wrap of conservative appearance and spray black drive unit surrounds. It’s a fair fit for most homes, but hardly as eye catching as the quadrals.

(…), the M4s came across as remarkably even natured and completely without shout.

In between the Platinnum M4’s extremes, however, lies a supremely civil midband, far better worked out than most. Vocals rang out clearly centre stage, back in the plane of the loudspeakers as the M4s are not falsely pfojective (there’s no midband lift).

The loudspeakes charm by their  easy nature that presents music in a simple, unforced but convincing fashion..

(…), the M4s are full of life, no one could accuse them of being sluggish or limp. Lower strings, notably cello, sounded fruity and this helped to a nice, large presentation, (…)

CONCLUSION
German engineering shines through with quadral’s Platinum M4s. Now we have a confident German industry producing excellent hi-fi products (…)

With the Platinum M4s quadral do an excellent job and although they will not shout in a show room battle, they will beguile, enough to make UK friends I believe. These are smooth, accurate and well made loudspeakers that work well with all types of music – at a great price.

Smartly finished, eye-catching speaker with an even, accurate sound. Real fidelity at an affordable price.

„... the quadral could give a proof of how well this works in practise. By using the same sound examples because of the secured adjustment the quadral featured the maximal accuracy and fewest typical loudspeaker sound. Temporarily we had the impression of prohibitive, membran-controlled active speakers. Only the Canton sounded simimlar homogenous and free of distortion but it finally had to surrender to the ultra precision of the quadral. The harmonic combination of its three branches continued in all the rest of the regions so that PLATINUM M4 became the odds-on test winner, ...“
