Hi,
I restrung recently a °1909 grand Pleyel 2.20m,  although this instrument
sounded already nice with the original strings, the pure sound gave it a
supplementary clearnes and singing sound but with less volume, (I calculated
an average of 63 to 74Kg per string)
the transfer between bas en middle is very smooth, the only problem was that
about ten strings in the two upper oktaves broke at their eye in the first
tree weeks after restringing (although breaking and stretchpointcalculation
were o.k.) it seems that this strings are more fragile...?
I restrung with pure sound in this same period  an upright 130cm A.Grand
Berlin +/- °1920, the action wil be finished soon, I let you know how this
piano sounds. Mas Cabres told me I have to wait for one year before getting
the final and optimum sound, my friend
Odd Aanstad from Norway did some restringings with puresound and could
confirm this.
Hellerbass Germany started to make basstrings with puresound in september
last year.

    List'

   I've been contemplating with interest  the tonal qualities of the new
pure sound wire I've seen advertised in the journal recently.  I also read
the suppliers article in the ptj but didn't find it complete.
       Has any one out there who has extensive restringing, rebuilding exp.
used this product and comment on any type of increase in sound
clarity,sustain or whatever.
      It is amazing that on some old but well preserved pianos that the old
strings at least to my ear sound as good and sometimes better than the new
ones.  Am I hearing things or what?  Be nice.
