Quadraphonic systems used 4 speakers and reproduce music mixed with 4 independent channels. Unlike surround sound, Quadraphonic systems do not have a separate subwoofer channel, nor do they have a front center channel. They reproduced music from Quadraphonic 8-track cartridges, Reel-to-reel players and phonograph players which were made for the purpose.

As the name implies, quadraphonic sound comes from four speakers. When they are placed in the recommended layout, the program material will seem to surround you and appear to come from both in front of you and behind. Quadraphonic mixes have different musical elements panned to different locations, so it may appear that you are standing on stage with the band around you, or you are in the audience with the crowd noises around you and the band up front.

What is stereo sound in film?

Stereo sound is a two-channel sound system designed to create the illusion of left-and-right depth to sound by recording two slightly different tracks and playing them back simultaneously. In this way, your ears can make your brain think that a noise is coming from the left or the right during a piece of music or action. More advanced "stereo" systems are Dolby digital stereo (optical two-channel), quadraphonic (4-channel), and Dolby 5.1 (5 channel with combination channel for bass).
