I was digging around in a box earlier, and I came across this UK CBS SQ releases brochure. I think I picked it up in late 1976 as I started University and got interested in Quad.

The dollar is worth about a quarter what it was in '76; so in today's dollars:
TOTAL $23,400, not including shelving or tax.
Deduct $4800 to substitute 4 large bookshelf speakers for Altec's.
Deduct $3200 for a low-line Quad receiver, and you have $15,400 for a complete Quad system able to play all formats.
$11,400 without a Quad reel.
Thank you again, Duncan S for posting this.
Being obsessive about all this, I counted 76 titles that I own on one or both formats.
Well, thanks to my stepfather I turned into a Quad Junkie,,,
Although he had a "low level" Panasonic Q8/receiver and to me , it sounded heavenly....
