Hey, it's not a waste if people are getting informed, right?

Chris,

I remembered reading on this list a while ago about people lowering
their AC output temperature.  Searching the archives, I found this thread:
http://www.audifans.com/pipermail/quattro/2004-August/094492.html
which may get you started.  It refers to the 4000/80/90 instead of the
type 44, but the general idea should be the same.

Good luck!
