Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

That sounds like a wonderful relationship. Whenever I put any music 
on my main system, my four-year-old daughter says, "Daddy, I don't 
want to hear your songs; I want to hear my songs." So then it's back 
to the soundtrack for Mary Poppins or the Little Mermaid. She does 
like the Beatles (often forcing her parents to impersonate them 
endlessly), but if I hear Rubber Soul one more time (as much as I 
revere it), I may plotz.
