Quality of 70s Quad Pressings?

I picked up a few 70s CTI jazz Quad SQ pressings. They sound pretty good except for what seems like a lack of bottom end. Any of you techie types out there care to enlighten me on the process used to get four channels out of the grooves? According to the sleeve only a decoder is required, not a special stylus.

That's right, you only need to find a decoder and hook up to another stereo amp and two more speakers. I still use an old (1976) Lafayette decoder, which has decoding for SQ, QS and some composer (basically the Hafler circuit) positions also.
Depending on the records, sound isn't bad.
