Chicago Quadio - 9 Quad Albums on Blu-ray Audio.

[The Rang]

I'm headed out of town on Saturday for a week.
I have no doubt it will arrive when I'm gone.

They can't be that bad. They've already been copied and pasted all over the internet, showing up at SHF and BluRay.com among other places.

Great job posting them for us here by perzon57, keywhiz and Fourplay. They should get the credit, not the other places.

While looking for the photos on Hoffman I came across this interesting post dated 4/12/11:

Here are the pics on other sites, and there is some discussion around them:

I sold my Chicago quads as soon as I heard about this set coming out, still waiting on it but it has shipped.
Chicago made great quad albums, I knew those quad 8-tracks would become obsolete with this release, so now was the time to let 'em go. Let me tell ya, I jumped through hoops to get the III quad, had it for around 15 years before parting with it, and it still kinda hurt

Impatiently waiting here:
Can anyone comment on their average shipping time from ImportCD? Of course, I went with standard shipping to Long Island, NY. At the time I clicked the order, I thought I could handle the wait. WRONG!

I'm constantly amazed at this...we wait for months...sometimes years for these releases...and then...when the item is finally released..it's like we lose our minds trying to get it as fast as possible...and of course we want it as cheap as we can get it..LOL...that's why no alien race would ever want to live among us...as Spock might mention it's not logical..

I think importcds is overwhelmed with orders for this item..I got a shipping confirmation at 4am Thursday...and the postal service still doesn't have it in their system and my credit card hasn't even been charged yet...BUT...I've ordered from them many times and I know it will come eventually...it's just part of the deal when you order from the "bargain" outlets...if you want to occupy your time during this waiting period...just start researching you next purchase...for me that's like a full time job..by the time I look at importcds...deepdiscount...both amazons...burningshed...bullmoose...ebay...discogs....the time flies by

I have thought of several schemes:

- Plan A: Try to trade off performing some much needed repair around the house for the box set right now. Not likely to work and only will get me into hot water.
- Plan B: Buy her a nice bouquet of flowers and beg her to give me the box set right now.
- Plan C: Tell her that I need to check out the discs to make sure that there are no defects.
- Plan D: Negotiate some compromise where I get a few discs each month.

Your evil plan? Yeah, I know, I'm getting these as a present so there's no sympathy here! :violin

From an event in London:

According to Sonos Head of PR, Pete Pedersen, people who listen more music out loud together have more sex.

This may open interesting negotiations.

So we have "Quadradisc" on the discs .Alright better than no emblem whatsoever. Looks good to this Quadraphile.

Still looking out the window every 5 minutes even though I know damn well the postman won't come until between 3:00-4:30. Anybody else get theirs yet with some first impressions? I think I'll start with CTA and then listen to VII when mine gets here.

Yeah, and when I posted that in the thread over there, the picture stealer had to make a snide comment. That's why everytime I begin to try and get back into the flow over there, it always turns out that the egos and narrow viewpoints just make the place tough to take. Reading is fine but posting is just asking for aggravation. I can't believe I was actually a mod over there at one time. Of course, it was a different place and a different time. A lot more friendly it was.

PS - Still waiting for mine

 

[zabble]

No, but Mine shipped yesterday from ImportCDs! Sorry Kapn', Just joining in......unfortunately (not I leave today for 2 1/2 weeks in Iceland and Sweden so I won't be hearing these for awhile.

One of my best friends is in Iceland right now going to see Radiohead at the Secret Solstice in Reykjavik. I'm envious.

.....OK, back to Chicago:

Here's what importcds had to say about shipping out my expedited order later than everyone else's standard orders:

Thank you for contacting ImportCDs!

Hello,

Please be advised that you requested expedited shipping which is the service we are providing to you.

Again, thank you for writing ImportCDs. We appreciate your business.

Best regards,
JB – ImportCDs Customer Service Support


Well, good for them, I have requested cancellation of my pre-order for the next 2 AF SACDs and will just buy them from amazon, even if the price is a little higher.

Ya know...they said exactly what I was going to post to you...you bought a mailing service which has nothing to do with handling and preparing for shipment...that's right...you show em...pay more money on amazon..that will fix them:ugham:

Just an FYI, I had ordered mine from Bull Moose - the one that broke the news on this set back in April:

https://www.quadraphonicquad.com/fo...uad-albums-on-blu-ray-audio.22044/post-292930

So I decided to "dance with the one that brung me." And yesterday I was one of three or four who received shipment first. Mine was not the cheapest fare, but I just want to point out that Bull Moose delivered the news AND the goods on this excellent set. So my antlers are off to you, BM!
