in Casa Nasty Mk. I back in the day. Casa Nasty MK. II's listening room layout wasn't conducive to 4 speakers so that was the end of the Quadaptor!
To this day I recall how great Al Stewart's Roads To Moscow sounded to wife and I and a group of heavily medicated friends and family very late one night when the preferred listening position was horizontal. The effect of the rear channel ambiance the unit added on that one song was a revelation.

I still use one today.
That is to say the revised version for 5-channel audio with video, the QD-1/IIL.
An expensive home theater surround system in my second bedroom was not practical so I set up the QD with a NAD integrated and five speakers. Modest cost and effective, if limited, surround experience with my flat screen HD TV.

on all sources, surround receiver used as pre/pro and for video switchinn and the amps are idle. the adcom 555II does all the work, rear ambience channels through the QD1 (panor) front channels direct from 555II.
nobody notices it unless i turn it off while playing the music.
