∗∗∗ WOW ∗∗∗!!

I thought 'Shock and Awe' was a phrase reserved for military actions
in desert countries! But this forum blows everything away!!

I thought that I was asking a simple question and would get a few
answers. I never expected to start such an interesting discussion
thread! Thank you all for the info. It looks like I'm going to have
to 'hack' together what I want from several vendors/modules at this
point. I am absolutely blown away with the many options, and even
better questions that never occured to me!

The one comment that I would like to make (and I am not trying to
start a war here) is that I don't think it makes sense to restrict
yourself an ANY one manufacturer. And the beauty is that most of the
modular gear that is available uses compatible signal levels (as long
as you can deal with different signal connectors, power connectors,
and mounting requirements). Even when there are overlapping modules,
there are often reasons to get different vendors modules in order to
expand you sonic pallet. And when all else fails, there are the DIY
options that often will fill strange and unusual voids (that you may
not even know you have till you run into the circuit somewhere).

Thanks again to everyone (even if this thread has not yet run it's
full course).

Larry T. back to listening/lurking (for now)…
