Re: Ridenour 576 or Libertas?

I read this loud and clear: "Hard rubber clarinets are better," and the Libertas is the best of the rubber clarinets. Sherman's generalizations about rubber not having the presence of sound found in wood clarinets is incorrect.

I buy the explanation and I'll probably buy the Libertas too, soon as my budget permits.

I have heard some metal clarinets that sound really good, not at all like a beginner's instrument, a loud band instrument, or a hybrid saxo-clarinet. Will try to post some audio evidence of this soon.

Tom is right in maintaining that first-rate clarinets can be constructed of materials other than wood,
