Subj: Re: [kl] Why buy barrels??
Date: Sun, 8 Dec 2002 12:42:02 -0500

Hey Rebecca.

I use a 67 mm Buffet Moennig and it allows me to produce a much more
beautiful sound than the barrel that came with my R-13. However, don't just
take the words of this list-serve; if you're interested in getting new
barrels, call up your favorite store and ask them to send several barrels (I
got 3) and then try them for yourself. If you don't think they're worth the
price (they're quite expensive), just return them all. But I think once you
try one, you won't want to use your old barrel ever again.

Good luck! =)
