I would be interested in hearing some opinions on tone variances between =
Mapes and Roslau wire.  I have used both.  Other than origin and color =
what noticable differences have some of you noticed in tone quality?  =
I'm not certain how this could be verified without stringing two =
identical pianos with each type of wire and then placing them side by =
side.  Has anyone noticed any defined brightness, fullness, or =
particular partial emphasis or suppressions between them?  If so which =
seems to closer resemble the tone quality of strings originally used in =
1920s-ish pianos?

Just wondering, seems like a good topic for discussion.
