The earliest Peachtree I can find is the i-Deco from 2009/10 or thereabouts.The DAC was a Sabre and there was a tube buffer. The front panel of the Quad Vena is not precisely like the Peachtree but is very like the classic Quad 22 preamp ( and the later 33) which must be its stylistic origin.
So there is not a one to one resemblence. However they do look generally similar and I am particularly struck by the grouping of the input jacks on the rear pane which is similar on the Quad and current Peachtrees and is a little unusual.
I would not say that the Quad is a Peachtree per se but they may well come from the same factory in China. I know that Quad are chinese made these days but anything similar has been kept from me about Peachtree which I had assumed was a US made product.
