When I tried the Signature, the absolutely perfect intonation was its
strong point. The Recital I compared to it had a nicer tone, but less
secure intonation. To each his own, I suppose. My own Series 10 had
intonation nearly as good as the Signature and tone nearly as good as the
Recital, so I decided I was well enough off where I was.
