Beautiful room and system. Mike, in the photo, the software displayed on the laptop, is from Avantgarde? If not, what is it? Thanks

Re: David Sanborn Dies
Saddened by the news of David Sanborn's passing. Saw him perform many times in the 80's & 90's while living in New York. A fine musician and a happy humble person.

So much so I've been told that there will be no S7 update/replacement (at least for now). The S5 2024 appears to be the top of the S series range for Magico. The next jump will be to the M series.
