If the alternative is "rubbing you the right way"... I'll pass :). If you had the time to be a bit more concrete with your thoughts - it would probably help. I'm not an audio engineer, I'm a developer like you.
Don't worry, I'm not going to get all Christina Aguilera on your ass. Anyway, I do admire your ambition at attempting something a little different from the 'guys chatting' norm.
