"Many feel that fabric ligatures dampen the upper partials and restrict the tone from "ringing". Again, all is subjective, and certainly there are many successful, well known clarinetists performing on fabric ligatures."

You are right. My favorite clarinet player (I have about 15 CDs of him) plays a fabric ligature. He sounds brighter than most players. One of my favorite classical clarinet players also use a fabric ligature. She sounds brighter than most also. Of course this is also subjective....
