Greetings all quad-o-philes.
I originally bought a Realistic quad receiver back in the 70's. I then got 4 very large no-name speakers for my very small bedroom in my parent home. It didn't sound very good so when I moved to a place of my own I forgot about quad and went stereo. Years later, in my present home, I have always felt something was not working well in my listening room (living room). About a year ago I wired up a Hafler circuit to a couple of video surround sound speakers and whoa, everything started sounding like the music was coming alive. So now I would like to get something potentially better than the Lafayette 4 channel adapter I am using now. I am really only going to use it with stereo sources. I have read the Sansui Vario Matrix is a good as it gets. Any suggestions?
I have found that placing the "rear" speakers on the sides and ahead of my listening position works best for my room and me.
