Is the Teres a

Voice (that's an instrument, right?), especially sustained female notes. Keyboard tremolo comes to mind, too. The kind that gives you a real "visceral" feel when it's reproduced correctly. Jean mentions the speed stability of his Lenco. I tried some newly acquired Tito Puente LP's (ones with a lot of vibraphone) on one of my Lenco projects and damned if that solid speed stability didn't let that sound come through in spades.

Sorry, though, this is waaaaay off topic.

Art Dudley's little story about Thom and Chris may not be able to bring them back together. Yet it's quite comforting to know that although they "march to different drummers" now, they still pursue their love of music, or more specifically, their vehicle to transport the music to a higher level.

How they began as an internet group, to how they first formed an alliance, to their eventual split, was told with an ending different from where they finally wound up - their separate ways.

Be as what it is today, they will meet at the Rocky Mountain Audiofest and compare tables and notes to see whose design would merit the consumer's requirements and desire.

Whoever wins, there will be no losers. Because they have evened the playing fields and proved that regardless of their past (they're friends, aren't they?) they would have served the common good.

God bless them!

What if we have a tie?

Cheers,

Salsa music is extremely hard to reproduce. There's way too many instruments that have fast rise times and slow, linear decays being played together *very* fast: vibraphones, congas, piano, bongos, trumpets...

Mr. 4yanx, you're with the program! Glad you caught up.

Then you have to buy one of each.
