I dunno. It seems that recent releases from the likes of Bjork or the
Beasties have been designed specifically for headphones. Most people
play with the settings on their home system anyway to get the sound they
like and some of them also have built in room effects which accentuate
the speakers.

It sounds like your software would be a very useful addition for the pop

making a gui for your prospective user base.

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before the arrival of U.S. troops.
