Looking for p/l 4000 info and wanted to introduce myself..

[bigeyesteve 11]

Just getting more comfortable with this pre. Going to finally add two SLA1's to utilize 4 speakers and get some kind of (hopefully) full experience.

 

Is there any resource for any quad recordings. Or even a database of what was produced on vinyl?

 

Anyways, thanks for any future info. Take care.

@bigeyesteve Welcome to the forum.

 

Like that you are using a PL4000 and like others on this forum we look forward to seeing pictures of your other gear.

 

As for a Quadraphonic Discography, in my search for this 70's era format, I found this. You can explore the many links and the information contained within.

Quadraphonic.info™ Articles, Manuals and Quadraphonic and Surround Sound Information

 

After exploring the above link, I found this link to be very interesting as it has "Surround recordings in many formats to be enjoyed over your surround system",

Surround Discography

 

Quad sound is near the bottom of that list or here.

Again, Welcome and enjoy exploring the above links and exploring and contributing to this site.

Welcome @bigeyesteve, glad you found us.  hope we see more (pictures) of your gear!

 

As for Quadraphonic Media (Vinyl), I don't actually look for it, but regularly go to Record Shows in the Chicago Area, and see a lot of vinyl for quadraphonic recordings for sale.  My observation is that this doesn't move well, and see a lot of buyers making offers, that get accepted, from the vendors at these shows.

Thank you for the warm and thorough welcome. All of that is certainly helpful. And I doubt I would have found it anywhere else. Judging from other responses in other threads, you all are equally very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Much appreciated!
