Since I am a "Barbershopper", I thought about this............... We as Barbershoppers tune up using a Pitch Pipe (the original is one you blow into, the latest is an electronic one (which is more accurate)), so why couldn't the temperament be set by one of these ? This STILL involves AURAL tuning to do, Besides, as other persons have said, it really should be based more on the technique and accuracy, meaning are the pins stable and are the unisons sound like one !!!!!
