That was my thinking. That is, I have not run into many (and really can't confirm any)original stereo recordings that have been processed to 5.1.I mentioned the "Marvin Gaye Collections" as a possible exception because it contains material that dates back to 1964 before the advent of Quad (I think). Now, the multi-channel Sam Cooke "Live at the Copa" was also recorded in 1964. But it like the Marvin Gaye SACD does not sound artificially processed in multi-channel and I have to wonder if it was done so originally. On the other hand the Membran series with materials going back to the mid fifties and before do sound less than authentic in multi-channel.
