Kris,
I've got the Lee Quintana patches, the Roger Nichols 480L patches and the
Massenberg patches. So far I have only been using the factory patches and
I'm pretty impressed by these.

I tried out the Roger Nichols patches last night.....at least I think they
are the Roger Nichols patches. I'm going to have to spend some time with
this unit comparing the different stuff I've got here and learning how to
use it. One thing is for sure.....this thing sounds really good. there's
something about it that sounds *like a record*. Another one of the magic
boxes that, for the most part, you can send a signal into and it comes out
the other end sounding better than it did before.
