   Well I like the idea of a Moog ladder-style HPF, in fact I even 
breadboarded one up and got it working, but it may take a long time to 
find parts that are suitable for a _small_ design (and not something that 
looks like a mono-block!).
   Probably fun as a one-off, but not well suited for production runs.

   Cheers,

   Tony
