Thank you Paul,
Adding slightly to what you wrote... the reverse wedge idea was a brief
stop on my path of experimentation, driven more by pragmatic
construction values than anything else. My current rigs have a slightly
radical addition to them that I think seems to improve spacial imaging
by a little bit, especially on certain kinds of difficult sound sources
like wind and water. As long as we're sharing, here's a short dawn
chorus recording from this past May, captured with one of those rigs.

I sure would like to get my grubby paws on a modified SASS some day for
a good listen.
