    I know I am not listening to this on the intended quad stereo equipment but damn this sound great playing multichannel through my Marantz receiver with an Ortofon OM40 cartridge. Doesn’t sound wonky but fairly full and wide as I would think was to be intended. I am sure I am missing something without the proper equipment. I can only imagine. The 1st Santa Maria is outstanding and the one to buy. Skip the MOFI and save your money.

      To me the organ on Captain Jack stands out more then the common copy.
