  • New chinrest
    By: Alan On 08/09/2023

    Wow... So interesting reducing chinrest weight - but it possibly could be true as in physics weight
    ( mass) needs energy to set it in motion as it is clamped to the body of the two plates - so you are leaving more energy for the plates to vibrate !
    The same physics has been used in car suspensions by fitting alloy wheels the suspension improves !

    Replied by: Dietrich Lasa On 15/09/2023 Thank you for your interesting comparison! In addition to the weight, it seems that the type of material is also important since the plastic chinrests from Germany have a similar weight, but the sound is not as clear with the plastic ones.
