and there's an excellent MAG article about using 4
speakers for better
stereo replay here:

nothing to do with ambisonic decoding, though.
This is just the old Hafler circuit. It doesn't
really compare with Ambisonics.
Gerzon's contribution to the Hafler circuit was
the addition of a blend or rear spread control
between the rear speakers and ground. This
is described in his later article "A year of
surround-sound", also available at The Gerzon

it doesn't. but i have to say that since i first encountered it,
thanks to brian eno's noodlings on the cover of, hmm, can't recall,
but one of the earliest recordings on EG, i've always been struck at
what a big improvement it makes to an otherwise stereo setup.

Absolutely. I used the Hafler circuit for
18 years, and much preferred it to
two-speaker stereo. (I bought a used
Ambisonic decoder in 1996 or so, and now
much prefer that to the Hafler circuit.)

I think that was "Discreet Music". IIRC he told to wire a third (rear)
speaker to the two "plus" poles of a stereo amp.

Oh, I just moved furniture and got those old Eno vinyls in my hands, so I
correct myself: it was "Ambient 4: On Land" (EGED 20, 1982).
"Discreet Music" shows the schematics for the setup that later became wider
known as Frippertronics ;)
