Third edition of "Sound Systems: Design and Optimization" by Bob McCarthy, which most of us have lovingly come to call the "green bible", has arrived!

Little did I know that a single email 1 year and 8 months ago, would mark the beginning of a marvelous journey during which I was honored to provide ongoing aid and support to Bob in refining and expanding upon what's considered the guide on sound system design.

During the process I've learned so much from Bob and had an exclusive sneak preview of new techniques that helped me tremendously to improve my own optimization and design work as well as publication-related items like the use of colors, line weights and font sizes.

I'm extremely proud to be one of the people granted the opportunity to contribute to Bob's latest book project.

But most important of all, I gained two friends.

Thanks Bob and Merridith for the confidence!

It was a great ride :-)
