You know, that is an excellent point.  My personal experience with theory and the math
involved was with (believe it or not) the PAiA FatMan.  That experience was key in
enabling me to work in the digital domain with audio DSP.  I know that sounds weird, but
many of the principles I learned with analog are quite applicable to digital techniques
and this is more than just at the block level.  Of course, this is just my opinion.
