Try them out on your own piano.  I've gone through about 5-6 of them =

put them on some of the practice room pianos once in awhile just to hear =
them with a note to the students indicating that this piano is tuned in =
________ temperament.   Over the past year, then, I've had the =
opportunity to hear about 10-12 different ones.  At this point I've =
probably settled on 2-3 that I would use if they were requested. =20

  List,=20

  I look forward to trying many of the HTs.  I have them sitting in my =
ETD, awaiting a proper time to come out and grace an instrument.  The =
biggest issue I see is where does one hear them all to decide which =
one/ones are appropriate for the situation?  Seeing the offsets written =
down, or a graph showing the offsets are interesting intellectual =
exercises, but how can we actually listen to them and compare without =
risking the wrath of a non-adventurous client or staid store owner by =
HT-ing their pianos?=20

  And can anybody satisfy my historical curiosity: is there any data out =
there about how HZ were measured before Heinrich HZ came along?  How =
were standard pitches set in rennaisance music?  =20
