The short answer is "very well, thank you", judging by the sales numbers. Admittedly, it is mainly the high end reb uilders who use this punching almost exclusively. As has been noted, there are cases where the Crescendos may not be the best20option, and of course personal preference always plays into it as well. The fact that top end companies such as Steingraeber (and others) are using this felt is an unspoken endorsement. For more user opinions on Crescendos, see: http://www.pianofortesupply.com/cresc.testimonia.html Someone mentioned ironing the conventional green punchings. I have also heard of using hamme r hardener on FR punchings. To suggest this as an alternative to Crescendo punchings is naive. The Crescendo felt has a=2 0certain firmness and density, but the proprietary felting method used, which is akin to the famous Wurzen hammer felt, preserves the natural resilience of the wool fiber. Pressing felt with heat will destroy the resilience which is needed to cushion the key blow. <smaller>Jurgen Goering Piano Forte Supply (250) 754-2440 info at pianofortesupply.com http://www.pianofortesupply.com <http://www.pianofortesupply.com%3c/smaller> </smaller> _____ Listen to 350+ music, sports, & news radio stations – including songs for the holidays – FREE while you browse.
