Hey Jon!<br><br>I don't believe that ANY matrix system will EVER sound 100% discrete. Yes, I'm sure the limitations of matrix quad are a major reason (probably...
I think that while CD-4 had it's early problems, and especially because it required a significant hardware "upgrade" requirement, that it was easy for the CBS...
I agree with Cai about matrix quad discreteness. I got hooked on quad after listening to a Q8 copy of A Space In Time by Ten Years After. The SQ version played...
Yeah, the QRX's and Tates are great at quad synthesizing non-quad stuff. Hey, you have a Tetrasound 101 too! I got mine from "Quad Incorporated" when they ...
The one thing you must remember about quad is that everything worked great.........ON PAPER!<br><br>Even if there was a close to perfect matrixing scheme, the...
> I think we can safely blame CBS and their obstinate positioning for the premature demise of quad.<br><br>I feel that CBS did a lot for Quad by releasing ...
Well, I am the proud owner of an Onkyo TX-DS696 reciever with the new DPL-II decoder in it. What's old is what's new...it is a dead ringer for QS. Not just QS,...
Yes, the Allman Bros. was done from the quad tapes. It is one of a few titles we were allowed to get from Polygram. We asked for Laid Back and they looked but...

Speaking of phase variations with vinyl, what do people suggest for getting the best "phase" out of a matrixed record? Basicly, I'm wondering how to get the ...
Hello Tab and congtrats on your Onkyo.<br><br>> Well, I am the proud owner of an Onkyo TX-DS696 reciever with the new DPL-II decoder in it. What's old is ...
I have had the car decoder for a while and run the Ovation Vector 4 demo if you see the test through a scope it some times goes to the corners for a split...
Considering how much QSD-1's go for, I think that DPL-II is a very good alternative. It is certainly better than anything else I've heard and it is so close to...
I prefer CD-4 to any other format. My turntable doesn't eat them. I had a difficult time with CD-4 for years, because of lack of a good stylus and demodulator....
I emailed Jim Fosgate a few weeks back and we chatted back and forth a few times about the DPL-II and from what he told me, the Tate II is still the "King of...
Hello to all. I have been into quad for a few years now. I dont have the equipment or knowlege that many of you have, but I'm trying to learn all that I can....
Does anyone in the group have a user manual for an Audionics Space 7 Image Composer they could copy and send to me ?. I have one of these, recently purchased...
The very fact that CBS "did a lot for quad" is the reason, I feel, that they accelerated the demise of quad. They positioned themselves as market leaders with...
I don't think that a linear tracking table is the magic bullet that it can sometimes sound like. Actually, I much prefer a uni-pivot, straight-arm turntable ...
It is difficult to have an excelent phono setup for both CD-4 and stereo/matrix.<br><br>Most moving coils are meant to be loaded with very different impedances...
Hello vector_xxx.<br><br>I did a booboo after writing a long reply to your message and it never got posted :-(<br><br>The core of my message was that while ...
Thanks for the tips on getting the best signal out of matrixed records. I'll have to keep the linear turntable in mind for CD-4, I really wasn't sure if it ...
Hi,<br> I'm going to be out of school here soon and will hopefully be in my own place soon, and I'm really looking forward to having a quad systems that's ...
Sorry to hear that your Q8 recordings aren't turning out better. I'm a little surprised, actually. I guess maybe my standards are lower than other people's, ...
I'm not familiar with the Technics recorder, it may be a pretty good one, but Akai made the best quad eight track. If you see an Akai CR80DSS on Ebay, you ...
I use a direct drive table and I like it a lot. It is a Marantz 6300, a very solidly built table. I don't have a problem with CD-4 records not sounding as good...
