And so it came to pass, on 11-06-96 13:33,
   that Bonnie Goodwin spake unto Matt Ion:
 BG> Hiya Matt!!
 BG>  Great to see you in the echo, again. Howya been doing? 
Not bad - keeping busy, for the most part.
 BG> Sorry it's been so long since contacting you. There's a chance I
 BG> might be up your way in August.
Hey, that'd be cool!  Keep me posted!
 >> Heck, deep, solid bass hasa ALWAYS been important.  Try playing a
 >> Sony or Windham-Hill recording of "1812 Overture" over a system with
 >> insufficient subs - it tends to lose a little something in the
 >> translation.  A system that *properly* reproduces the full dynamic
 >> range of that cannon blast should be able to blow the windows out of
 >> the car! >:)
 BG> True, or cause the airbags to blow! What I was meaning is that it
 BG> seems that noone will equalize and adjust the low bass to be at the
 BG> same relative levels of everything else, they want to crank it. 
True.  Although it's kind of nice when you have a sore back =)
 BG> Had a hell of a time getting the Sacramento Ballet to consider
 BG> subwoofers since they did an "electric" show last year with the
 BG> killer sound system from hell and they maxed the subs on them so
 BG> now they are gunshy to add the bottom octaves back into the music
 BG> again.
"Look, you go to an expensive restaurant, buy a fancy pastry, and then dump 
salt all over it.  Would you hesitate to try the pastry again after that?  Of 
course not.  Now let me serve you up a pastry WITHOUT the salt... or a system 
without the overkill subs!"
IKEA ... Swedish for "particle board."
