Hi all,

I took a few minutes to build a non-working horizontal response model of
what I think a 3 wire "x" suspension could look like.  Am
trying to grasp such.  I don't know if its even ~ practical actually.  I
would think it could have unidirectional horizontal response.
Its seemingly more likely to instead have the mass underneath the bottom
"plate" for perhaps better period adjustment range.  See:

New and "strange" yes, but interesting.  The trouble with this is that I
don't think anyone has actual experience...but if they
do; I'd like to hear about it.....or.....any comments....

Take care, Meredith
