Baldwin warranty / 743 question

[Roger Jolly]

Hi John ,
  If you check the down weight, I bet a dollar to a donut it's in the low 
40"s.   Stick some lead back there, it will improve the response a whole 
bunch.    The 243HP has a graduated weight off.  And weighs off at about 
50gms bass.   The only Baldwin vertical to have key leads in the relatively 
recent years.

Regards Roger

PS I have no problems with the design of most of the products, QC Issues 
yes.  And the way the current owners do business also yes.

I think Guy Nicols sized it up well.
