Hi Bakis,

Yes sir, you are correct! The DCO's of the Matrix 6/1000 are based
on the CEM 3396 chip while the A111 is based on the CEM 3340. To my
ears, they sound similar. We'll have to agree to disagree there!
Please understand that my comments are in no way are meant to suggest
that either the A110 or the A111 sound bad compared Moog or
Oberheim. Rather, I agree that both sound good, just different than
one might expect.
