Quadraphonic sound was based on creating a totally immersive experience which was, also, totally unlike any real performance experience.

OTOH, modern multichannel is intended to recreate the real performance experience by incorporating the ambiance characteristics that make the actual performance sound unique to the time and place.

It is hardly a surprise that quad fans often complain about how their classic recordings are changed when remastered for today's multichannel.
