Here's my Stereophile interview with Jim Fosgate, the man was a Quad true believer! www.stereophile.com/interview... What a great guy!
There were four Quad LP formats-Columbia had SQ, Sansui had QS, Electro Voice had EV-4, JVC had CD-4-but they weren't compatible. Quadraphiles needed a separate decoder for each format. They all had their problems. With CD-4, it was hard to find a phono cartridge that tracked well enough not to break up. The open-reel recordings were really good, and they had discrete separation, but the vast majority of material was only available on matrixed LPs.
