[CAUT] Pure Sound M scale

[Jim Busby]

Jurgen is right. The kits are an excellent, "safe" way to try the wire.
That's how I got into it. 

 

Jurgen, will you make up these "kits" for people?

Of course all I do with regard to Pure Sound Wire is done with Juan
Mas-Cabre's consent and support. As the Pure Sound distributor for North
America, it only makes sense. Juan and I depend on each other. 

 

The idea of the "kits" is a brilliant one to make it easy for first-time
users to try the wire and have a successful result. While technicians
are more than welcome to simply purchase various gauges and go for it,
the "kits" are kind of an easy introduction to this wire.

	Hi Jim, 

	I agree with Ed. And understand Juan's position as well. Jurgen
is selling "kits" of wire plus scales for Steinway M, L and B. Does this
have Juan's consent? I think, very strongly, that it ought to. That is
precisely the best way to promote use of the wire: make it easy the
first time. There's a hassle factor to trying something new, in this
case a pretty big one. You have to make a fairly large investment in
material. You have to do what is necessary to come up with scaling,
which means a lot of measuring and writing down, plus contacting someone
or purchasing software or whatever. And you are going to have to learn
new techniques for working with a different material. All this on a bit
of a bet: some people say it's worthwhile. Is it? If not, you've wasted
a good bit of time, money, and irritation. 

	I really like what Jurgen is offering: scale plus enough wire to
do a job plus a bit extra. Much less of an investment in time and
hassle. If it is as good as people (like Jim Busby <G>) are saying, then
you go the extra mile. If not, you're only out a fairly minor
investment.
