Thanks, littleb!!! No one's ever called me a "winner" before...at least not in a positive sense. (Do I need to make a speech? I'm wasn't prepared, but here it goes..."I'd like to thank the Academy, and my mom, and my....huh, what? my time's up already?!?")

Anyways, it's sad to see the demise of a great little big speaker (or is it a big little speaker?). I had always thought they were a little over-priced...a few hundred more than an M3 for nothing more than a bigger box. But that bigger box makes a HUGE difference.

Maybe us members of the "M40 posse" should join the "AX posse" now?
