Re: [Harp-L] M.S. Series reed plate thickness conundrum

["HOWARD HERRNSTADT" <heherrnstadt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Even if thicker reed plates do help to produce a louder sound there has to 
be a principle of diminishing returns here. How thick is too thick to 
produce further desired effect? I think the size and materials of the  reed 
and the chambers in the instrument, hand, and mouth/head, and the air flow 
are probably bigger contributors to volume.
