Hi Stingreen, Any discussion should result in at least some
dispute to be interesting. Otherwise ''it'' will be boring.
Now considering your violin ''argument''. I never understood
why all those composers wrote for this anemic, shrill and shabby
looking and sounding instrument in any orchestra?
As you confessed yourself the ''thing'' sounds different everywhere
and even under your own chin. What about our expensive speakers
and the rest of our equaly expensieve other gear? Well independent
from the amount of money spend I have never heard any violin
sounding well. Or , to be more pricise, as it should in the so
called ''reality''. One should listen to the guitar music instead.
The strings are fast the fundamentals as easy to hear as the
harmonics an ideal instrument to judge any system. Even better
to judge carts. That is anyway what I do.
