Hi there Quad-lovers,
I have a technical question. I am looking into an old Soundesign AM/FM Stereo/8 track quad receiver. - probably from the '70's. I don't know the product number as I have yet to possess the system.
I have some 8-track tapes that I tried in the system, but I just got sped-up or slowed down versions. The settings were: 1,2,3 and 4 as well as "Quad" which seemed to be an alternate setting, but I couldn't access it.
I guess my question is this: Do you know anything regarding Soundesign receivers and how I could figure out the system? Any forums I can look into (other than this one) or manuals that I could get a hold of?
I do not think the system is broken, just old and I'm unsure of proper settings. If it is broken, I think it is an easy fix. I just need some sort of guide as to where to begin or how to start.
Any thoughts?
Thanks so much!
Cheers,
Quad

I'm new here, but not deeply into Quad these days. Still, I have some of the original items from the day.
Whatever killed it, it just sucks now that we've gotta have 5 ears to hear 5.1, etc. Dunderheads!
I had ordered another item (a 4-channel Akai GXD-400DSS 4-ch tape deck), but it got lost in the fog of war and my money had to be returned before I returned to the continental US. Bummer.
All in all, it was great to have such a setup in the day when people only had two ears.

welcome to QQ, hope you enjoy your time here.
great collection of gear! i did the same re buying while in service (army) in '73, near end of vn war. i was in tokyo for my service time.
curious, you now have a/the gx-400d-ss? or it was lost back in the day and not replaced?
they're starting to command some hefty prices on ebay, etc which bums me out a bit as i would like to have one some day.
