I won't comment on your lab, but do want to let folks in the Northeast US know about an impressive exhibit of very large scale color photographs:

The technical and artistic achievement of this body work is notable; all done analog. There are also a couple of gallery talks scheduled for June from this artist, who teaches at thew Mass College of Art. Recommended.

Noting that there has recently been a lot of postings about enlargers, etc., I'm reminded of an experience I had a while back.
Not having done any color enlargements since high school (55 years back, type C perhaps, also dye transfer), I have been sending my 2 1/4 transparencies to a commercial lab for 16X20 and 20X24 enlargements.
With the 20X24 prints I often get back a 4X5 inter-negative or transparency.
The shops say this is necessary for best quality.
I think I know the reason why, but would be interested in comments from folks who know about such things.
