... so then it's a proven fact that bell rings really don't improve resonance or quality of sound after all ??

- it's a rattling disadvantage for sure when it's loose
- it certainly adds more weight to the instrument overall

+ it's more economical to produce oboes by not making bell rings, have note long list of makers who don't do them
+ the metal band does provide some wood protection against knocks and chipping for the widest part of the bell
