There are rumours, are there not, of the back catalogue arriving on SACD
over the next months?
I never had access to proper quadrophonic equipment, just a sort of doppler
simulator thing by Rotel. I seem to recall that now and then, Tommy Vance
played quad versions of Floyd on FM (I'm remembering Shine On here.....),
re-processed into stereo, because they sounded "interesting" that way! But
I was young and I might be imagining those memories.
I don't think you'll get any DVD-A Floyd, because the record company just is
not in that camp. But buying a "universal" player was the best move I've
made lately!
