Quaudiophiliac (styled QuAUDIOPHILIAc) is a compilation album featuring music by Frank Zappa, released in DVD-Audio format by Barking Pumpkin Records in 2004. It compiles recordings he made while experimenting with quadraphonic, or four-channel, sound in the 1970s. Zappa prepared quadraphonic mixes of a number of his 1970s albums, with both Over-Nite Sensation (1973) and Apostrophe (') (1974) being released in discrete quadraphonic on Zappa's DiscReet Records label.[2][3]

Quaudiophiliac (QuAUDIOPHILIAc en la portada) es un álbum recopilatorio del músico y compositor estadounidense Frank Zappa, lanzado en 2004 por Zappa Family Trust. Compila grabaciones hechas mientras se experimentaba con el sonido cuadrafónico, o de cuatro canales, en los años 1970. Producido por Zappa y completado por su hijo, Dweezil Zappa, es considerado una de las primera incursiones en el sonido surround. Zappa preparó mezclas cuadrafónicas para varios de sus álbumes de los años 1970, que nunca se lanzaron porque no había un soporte adecuado en la época, siendo Quaudiophiliac el primero de una serie de lanzamientos con este material.
