I would assume that there are real perceptible differences in the sound, response, and feel between the two ligatures. I hear, along with some other players, differences among gold-plated, silver-plated, and standard nickel alloy Bonade inverse ligatures and similar differences between the silver and gold BR tradition and Duo ligatures and the silver and gold Vandoren M/O ligatures. Ditto for the differences between the Ishimori metal ligatures made of different materials. The all copper Ishimori for instance dampens much more of the sound than the solid silver, too much probably for most players' tastes. What I am less sure about is how much of this difference carries to the back of a hall when you are playing in normal non-electronically amplified settings. Does any of this actually get to the listener's ear in the 45th row or is it mostly important to us as players?

I don't know the answer. David, have you listened to players on these ligatures from a "back of the hall" perspective? Do you have any thoughts on this?
