I've got a tech question for the group:  Paul and Curt have both  
submitted beautiful sounding nature recordings with set-ups which  
appear to have mics in a side by side array with wood between.  The  
SASS seems to use an almost similar system but the mics are directed  
at an angle outward.  What are your opinions about whether the  
parallel or angled out mic array gives the the best stereo image?   
They all sound great to me.
Thanks all,
Kevin
