Quested factory

Wow i just had an amazing experience.

I use Quested s7 monitors which i love and cherish and have just been to the Quested factory which is not far up the road and met the guys there including Roger the main man himself.

I got to listen to some of the new monitors they are working on with a variety of music including my own and had a good chat to them there and saw the factory.

Anyone looking out for some new monitors really should give these guys some thought as not only are they great quality built products, they are also really sound people who are very passionate about what they do.

Really was great to see the actual working environment of a company

Awesome! The New Quested V3110 are SICKENING!!!!!

Can't wait to experience the new 2108 design.

I love the SR7's and have had excellent results with them in the past.

They are majestic. You need a rather large room for these far field's though.

Big fan of Quested here.

I just got my pair of HM415, finally they are installed, it was difficult to install them because both WEIGHT a TON. But everything is set and the man himself (Mr. Roger Quested) will come to Mexico City from UK to adjust personally the set up.
Its time to Rock my CR!!!

Best regards.

I am a big fan of Quested S7R. Roger worked in a famous (at the time) studio in London where I recorded my very first album. That's a loooong time ago
Great guy, and great monitors. Not that often talked about on GS compared to some models by other manufacturer but they are a joy to work with.
Maybe just not "fashionable" (who cares BTW?)

Wow !!!!!!!! very jealous you not only have the means but also the room to have those installed
They had those there and ive seen pics of studios with them but to see them in front of your face you realise how big they really are. I laughed as they remind me of the back end of the batmobile or something Darth Vader would have if he had a studio hahaha

How heavy are they? And at least with something that big you didn't have to deal with UPS or FEDEX!
