Accidentally bought a Quadrophonic LP. OK to play?


Hello,

I bought an LP off of ebay, it is a double and triple concerto back LP on Harmonia Mundi...

turns out it is quadrophonic (SQ)

Is it ok to play this on a normal stereo setup? Will it sound messed up?

Thanks

I've got a number of Quad lp's in the classical repertoire and they sound just fine played in stereo. For whatever reason, I've noticed our local record retailers are starting to ask a premium for Quadrophonic recordings? Maybe just the rarity of the pressings accounts for their reasoning?
