Hi Richard, The duplex can not do much except absorb energy rather quickly and then "bleed" it back into the Bridge/soundboard. It also does act as a "filter" whether that is intended or not. I do enjoy the sound of pianos with duplex/triplex--but I can see that they ultimately *must* cause a net energy loss. I'm against energy loss. *grin* welll mostly. To quote Red Green, "I'm a man, I can change, if I have to, I think." LOL At 05:35 PM 9/4/02 +0200, you wrote: >Ron O > >I must beg to differ here.
