I actually had a guitar playing buddy in high school (great guitarist who
knew how cool some short delay would be) that asked me how much cable he
would need coiled up in the back of his amp to get the delay he wanted. He
was somewhat surprised at the size of the reel I recommended. <snicker>

This reminds me of a clueless individual who thought that buying 5 foot
MIDI cables would have a noticeable effect on MIDI delay over 10 foot
cables. Little did this individual know that for even a single sample @
44.1khz delay to be induced by the wire it'd have to be about 2800 feet
long. ;-)
