Disappointing.Quad folded down to stereo? Sounds like a missed opportunity...
If i read it right, its all vinyl and the quad is presented as a stereo fold down. The best quad version of this disk remains the Q4 reel from the 70's or a transfer of it.
You got me real excited there for a moment Lord, but it does say folded down to stereo, instead of visions of Sugar Plums I got The Jackson Five.
Sounds straight up insulting to the original release! I'd expect that kind of thing from bootlegs.Quad folded down to stereo? Sounds like a missed opportunity...
I totally agree, it doesn't even make sense, fold down to stereo , who cares, stereo is stereo, they might have said copied from original brickwalled release.Sounds straight up insulting to the original release! I'd expect that kind of thing from bootlegs.
Yes to the Q4 copy.
The lure for the stereo listeners with respect to the fold down is that the quad master used different takes on a few of the tracks... Rat Salad & Fairies Wear Boots spring to mind.... there may be more. Getting those alternate takes on an LP wasn't possible back in the day unless you went the bootleg route.I totally agree, it doesn't even make sense, fold down to stereo , who cares, stereo is stereo, they might have said copied from original brickwalled release.
Throw in a $20.00 disc and sell the damn thing correctly.
Sorry guys, it's probably not an appropriate post for the surround forums. I just saw the word "quad" and immediately got a stiffy.
No Worries, LB Any news surroundy good or bad is worth posting. Ya never know. Keep up the news hunting.
Wrong thread - the price drop is for Vol. 4, right?Price reduction right now 68.97 in the UK
You are right....I must be getting ParanoidWrong thread - the price drop is for Vol. 4, right?
All of my excitement opening this box to find it says quad in stereo? Yes it sounds like a tird covered Twinkie. His voice is all over the place. It sounds like he's talking through one of those toys that makes your voice echo. What a missed opportunity!I have this edition and think the quad fold down sounds like crap
