David...a quick question. I remember when you did the 3D experiment you were very taken with that sonic presentation. I know the 3D thigamajigie which is being developed/commercialized by the Prof at Princeton is long gone now but do you think you still would prefer that sonic presentation vs. Bill's optimized 2-ch set-up for you or no? I guess I am trying to get a sense for which sonic presentation sounds more natural/realistic and is more pleasing to you (knowing that for now you have to live with your current set-up in it's current optimized form)?

David, my daughter graduating from Virginia Tech and Mother's Day take precedence over posting on AA.

Yes the women in my life make it the best!

1) My steak was Pittsburgh medium rare and wonderful!!

2) Your Napa beat my Columbia Valley (Sorry Jeff, we needed a couple of hours to come from behind!)

3) Your system sounded very good before we started. Still a few judiciously placed treatments (Hey to Reg) and it could be much better than we were able to make it.

4) Maggie MG-IIIs are still magic. You don't have to own them but if you don't like Maggies, you don't get music!

5) Your theater could be great - and will be if you stick with those Maggies!

The best part of the evening - David and Robert's company.

The worst - knowing that Serge couldn't make it.

Need to do it again soon guys. And I apologize in advance for all the wine offers that are about to overwhelm your computers.

Thank You for all your hospitality.
