IvanK, thanks for the background on the mechanical/electrical tachometer topic. It's very interesting stuff and you have the advantage of first hand knowledge of what transpired which very few of us have. As for the "fans" and "dumbed down" issue which had you crying "BS"; Luthier makes frequent reference to Cliffs of Dover players as "fans" (I checked), and the "dumbed down" was my interpretation based on the little information we had been provided.
You may consider others' opinions "silly" and "wrong" based on having this information advantage -- good for you. But there's no need to be boorish about it. Just sayin'.
