    Yes so sad. They were great friends. I spoke to James a few weeks ago and his health was tanking. The cancer had spread and he was confined to a wheel chair. Still his was his typical quirky colorful self. He will be missed.

    That is sad; he was quite a character and an important force in audio design - Dynaco, SAE, GAS, Sumo, and "Spread Spectrum Technologies". His sartorial elegance in particular will be missed!
