Uh, uh, NOPE!! Actually, I no longer have the 7700. I was so unhappy with the way it sewed, I took it back and exchanged it for the Babylock Symphony. The 7700 didn't sew as well as my sweet old MC4000 (God, I still miss that machine) and it wouldn't go over the center seams in my latest OBW. Since that is the only pattern I've done more than once, that just wasn't acceptable. And it could have been a star point or whatever, but I find it absolutely ridiculous that a machine that expensive couldn't handle a bulky seam. I even got the new re-designed foot. Still wouldn't. So I am much happier with the Symphony.
Bloomin eck! You'd expect AT LEAST that for a machine of that calibre - I'd heard elsewhere that they hadn't improved on the 6600, except the throat space. I have to say that mine, with or without the acufeed foot, handles everything I throw at it. Makes me feel better though as I bought my 6600 only a few weeks before they brought the Horizon out. I thought for a while I'd goofed but I wouldn't swap mine for the world. Although my next goal is a long arm as well! :mrgreen:
