Sound Quality
The quadraphonic mix is rich, warm, and exquisitely room-filling. Voices and guitars occupy distinct spaces; harmonies soar with clarity, and the instrumentation wraps around the listener. It delivers a more satisfying emotional depth than many modern Dolby Atmos music releases—focusing on spatial precision and immersive warmth over cinematic overhead effects.
⚙ How to Set Up Your System for Quadio Listening
-
Use your AVR in DTSHD MSTR mode (LFE+Mains is highly recommended here).
-
On the disc menu, set audio to DTS 4.0 Qudio.
-
This will route sound to your Center, front left/right and rear left/right (or sides, depending on your setup) plus the subwoofer.
✅ Overall Recommendation
This Quadio release is one of the most compelling music audio discs in recent memory. Its high resolution, dynamic mix, and superb immersion make it a standout. When set up correctly, it becomes more than listening—it’s an enveloping experience. Perfect for audiophiles and fans of melodic, laid-back rock.
