Thanks for the kind words. It was a lot of fun. I'm sorry we couldn't get every question answered, but hopefully we got most of the larger issues covered. We did not discuss a separate tactile transducer channel. Like you, to me that sounds like an issue for Hollywood.

As for Buttkicker, I have to say that if that company's objective was to sell more product, they failed miserably in their demonstration. The settings must have been too high because the sofa was constantly jiggling. It was really distracting - like watching TV in a cheap hotel and putting quarters in the bed vibration gizmo with the occasional big whack. I would never buy one based on my experience at CEDIA. I mentioned this to Stacey who assured me that set up properly, they really do enhance the home theater experience. I'll guess I'll just have to try them out at a dealer where they are properly set up. That will involve traveling as I have no local dealers that carry them.
