  1. So is it an urban legend that TD 340/380 was sold to Thomas Dolby?
    The system in the auction looks much the same as the one that's in the Edgar Froese's 'Sobornost' clip.

  2. As far as Edgar Froese is concerned, he used his system on stage during parts of TD's 1980 and 1981 tours.

  3. I observed a strange thing as I viewed again the Sobornost clip: the surrounding plates that housing the two screens have a different darker color than the one pictured here which looks like it is beige. Is this really Edgar's system?
