	True, indeed. It's a bit hard to tell what QSound sounds like without
a non-Q reference. It can't be switched off or anything like that. But I'm
kind of glad that we can't tell... I almost expected some sort of acoustic
tragedy ... perhaps gross-sounding phase shifting or unrealistic EQ. Perhaps
less is more. Perhaps somebody trying to promote the process will release an
A/B comparison on a tape.
