I "Hit It and Quit It" on 11 February in my march through Black History Month:Well somebody's gotta listen to "Maggot Brain" through the Surroundmaster
Neil Young says it ruined his first album:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haeco-CSG

...an estimated 10% of all stereophonic albums released during the late 1960s and early 1970s employed the system.
Anyone tried one (or more) of these CSG processed stereo recordings through a Surround Master (Involve/QS mode)?

Actually, the records sound like they were recorded in SQ (or maybe BMX). The front center parts of the CSG record come out the LB and RB speakers in SQ. All of my Tijuana Brass records do this.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haeco-CSG

yer givin' me a flashback, man!!You'd think that an album meant to replicate the psychedelic experience would sound magnificent through the Surround Master . . . and you would be 100% correct! Mind BLOWN! So much wonderful separation going on here from needle drop on side one to dead wax thump-a-lump at the end of side two. There was a period of several months during my senior year in HigH school when i exclusively listened to albums released in 1967 . . . and i was always under the influence of some hallucinogen. This slab got a LOT of headphone time, and the SM gets damn close to replicating those heady daze! Kaukonen's scorching leads often emanate from the left rear and Casady's crunching bass often comes from the right rear, whilst Dryden's percussive prowess seems to be all around me. Feedback flies around the room. Background vocals come sweet from the rears. The trippier tracks ("A Small Package of Value Will Come to You, Shortly" and "Spare Change") are especially well-served through the SM. If you want to take an amazing trip, CRANK this beauty through the Surround Master–Do It, Do Do It, Do It . . . no man is an island–he's a peninsula! Stay Surrounded, Comrades!
