Brilliant! I'm stopping work on the LFR1100 and the DSP and we will simply be strapping a pair of these onto the backs of standard M80s. Unfortunately the price will remain at $3,760. wink

I did this experiment last month with the pink M3s on top of my 80s. But they were facing backwards. I am kicking myself now for not patenting it.

At that price I expect at least a nice looking empty box with dials knobs and switches to replace the dsp.

But many more LED's, and maybe some lead weight inside to prevent the consumer from thinking they got gypped..

and if anyone opens the box, the warranty is void.

John, I already have a thought for next year. (don't tell the others).

John...on another note, here is a link to a great site for rare movie soundtracks. www.lalalandrecords.com

I just ordered the new release of "The Robe" a remastered double cd. It's one of Alfred's best. (this link works,too ;))

Larry, we'll be looking forward to it(although Andrew didn't seem to be especially amused by your most recent effort), but hope that we hear from you again earlier than that.

Yes, that's an interesting soundtrack site. As I've said before, much of the best modern "classical" music is found in movies. If you don't have it already, you might check out the 2-disc set of the exotic musical themes which Alex North composed for Cleopatra . I think you might enjoy it, as I do.
