4 New Quadio releases coming in June!

[Muppet69]

Same here in Germany, 6 weeks and still waiting for paranoid, received the other 3. Answer from Rhino was it can take up to 8 weeks. Then a follow up email to give some feedback, which I did!

That’s the same for me too…. Hearing crickets

Well nearly a month gone by and still haven't received my promised refund yet. Should have taken only a few days to their info. I have contacted them again today and I am curious of their reply! Did anyone here got their refund??

Surprisingly got an answer within reasonable time with an apology and now my money has been transferred to my PayPal account.

Despite all my complaining about delivery issues I haven’t had time to actually play any of these discs.
Threw on Paranoid in stereo last night.
I recall concerns, mine included, about the 2 channel source because quad was the focus.
Well, I take that back because the 2.0 sound on this disc way exceeds my expectations.
Maybe a bit bass heavy (that’s good IMO), but for a metal/hard rock album of this era it sounds full and open, really nice.

 

[Muppet69]

Paranoid was in my mailbox waiting for me today!!! Well packaged and in perfect condition. I was amused that it said it was sent by Black Sabbath and what was in the package multiple times…. and nobody pinched it.

 

[Muppet69]

Damn, this is so good! And I’m only half way through it, so active too. Must buy if you don’t have it yet.

I was travelling for the summer so I waited a bit, but Rhino just started its Labor Day sale with free shipping on $50 plus. There's also 15% off most items, but not the bundle. Still ordered it, looking forward to listening.

 

[The Pink Floyd]

I ordered Paranoid and B$B on 8/25. I received Paranoid yesterday and B$B is out for delivery today. I have the DVD-A of B$B and the quad DVD of Paranoid from the deluxe edition. I look forward to hearing the differences.

I can assure you that Billion Dollar Babies and Paranoid sound quite different from each other.

I ordered the bundle on 8/29; Paranoid arrived yesterday but the remaining three are still stuck in California. I figured I would have to wait on Black Sabbath but I was wrong! No breakage issues with the case, fortunately. Can’t wait for the others to arrive and Quadio myself into bliss.

Well, after hundreds of pages of hullabaloo: the Quadios are available for sale today from Amazon US. $25 a pop and no fuss with the shipping or customer service. No need to order from the Rhino Store at all, if you can wait three months.

True. I ordered B$B on Wednesday from Amazon US, and it just arrived on my doorstep!

2 days ago I finally gave up and requested a refund for Paranoid, and Rhino promptly paid it.

Paranoid arrived through my letter box today



I feel so bad that I've just emailed them back and offered to refund their refund.
I can't let their sterling reissue work go unrewarded.

Sorry Rhino

 

[jefe1]

Ive been there before
All you can do is offer to pay for it and let them set it up for you.

However be prepared to be blown away by Paranoid. Put your seatbelt on before pushing play.

 

[JDeanB]

I see that importcds have the first four. A few days ago, all four were listed "in stock". Now, I see Red Octopus and Paranoid are out of stock. Priced at $20.43 each. Quite a deal.

 

[J. PUPSTER]

Thanks for the links! Just pre-ordered all 4 from Amazon.

I saw the 2nd Quadio batch mentioned there in detail (reviewed) as well.

I like seeing all of them get mentioned at once. Makes for a more collectable series when you get to see them all like this.

If you are near Encinitas California, you can stop in Lou's Records and buy the quadio discs. They had 3 of the 4 in a display on the counter.

Wonder who has The Outlaws catalog? I think they only released one Quad though, Lady In Waiting.

I have a few CD4 lps still but not my Sansui QRX5500 my favorite Quad LP is The Outlaw's Lady in Waiting. I just ripped all my collection to FLAC and was going to convert Lady in Waiting to 5.1 just to play with. Really though the stereo version sounds very close when playing the FLAC through my two Denon 5.1 and 7.1 avrs (aka Frankensystem 9.2 channel and growing?
All that is synchronized through the media source hub. Hahha I even tried to sync all that in my HEOS group via Alexa. HDMI can get a little squirrely but tamed it with:

OREI (HDA-929)​

EARC 4K 60Hz Audio Extractor, Extract Dolby Atmos Convert Sound bar 18G HDMI 2.0 ARC Support HDCP 2.2 Dolby Digital/DTS Passthrough CEC, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Support for Sonos Bose ​

It's a little Mutt

AIMS Ceiling Speakers
DENON SACD ATMOS DTS etc.

SONY SACD
Amazon FireTv Max
Technica TT

AR 15
ELAC
Bose
Micca

Can't wait to see if they release the Outlaws Lady in Waiting in multichannel though ,,,Cheers

Hi, welcome to the forum!
I too had a "frankenstein" two AVR Atmos setup and also used a pc and an HDMI extractor to feed an analog input AVR for some of the channels.
