Friend of mine has a vintage 35mm 4-Track print of "TOMMY" plus the Quintaphonic Sound decoding unit from the Fox Wilshire Theatre in Beverly Hills. John Mosely/Colortek used it on "A Bridge to Far".

Quintophonic was based on 4tr mag.

Dolby did offer a "quintophonic module" for the CP-100. Might have been used in the UK. Louis
