Ron,I would be very interested in working with the Fostex FE-206E and FE-207E (also the FX200) to compare them directly with Lowthers. But unless I get them magically for free, I don't think it is going to happen anytime soon. If I buy any more drivers my wife will probably change the locks and not give me a key, I have not told her about the amp/preamp upgrade I am considering yet.
My audio buddies are circling my house like vultures waiting for my extra Lowthers to come loose! Not going to happen in the near future, I have too many interesting projects planned.
