I wasn't commenting on your experience. Yes, arguments and warnings, not dire warnings, just warnings, are based on my experience and aesthetic choices as well as honest feedback from someone outside the shop. The "lecture" wasn't really meant for your benefit, I had no illusion about that. It was an added commentary on the issue of design that too often gets presented on this list as gospel with other approaches demeaned. But those who read this list and hear arguments that seem to make perfectly good sense should be aware that designs that seem to make perfectly good sense don't necessarily yield tonal results that one might expect.

If you mean one based on my experience instead of your arguments and dire warnings, yes, you should have. I used to diaphraghm boards when I was building systems I didn't like the sound of nearly as well as those I currently build, but I currently don't do it and haven't missed it. That may change, or not. > All, IMO, of course. Yes, yours. Thanks for the lecture. Ron N
