I don't rule out completely that instrument quality could have been higher.
1. More abundant grenadilla wood. Clarinet makers could select higher grade wood for the same money.
2. Not as fierce competition from mostly Asian producers. This has probably forced Western makers to cut some corners.
Advancements in technology and knowledge speaks against the golden era theory.
Btw. Stradivarius and Guerneri violins represent a golden era, but blind tests give a firm indication that the hype of the instruments is all in their name.
