Re: Clark Fobes Debut- what's next?

Hi Robert,

I have the Debut and the 10k CF and I have tried a San Francisco CF+

For me it is really hard to get the Debut to respond. I really have to work at it and it's not worth using that mp at all for me. The 10K CF for me is amazing and responds immediately to the slightest breath. It produces an incredibly focussed sound and is a total dream to play.

I absolutely agree about the 10k feeling like a high end luxury car. I had no idea it could be so easy to play until I tried that mp. I would not switch now, having discovered it.

The San Francisco CF+ was also very very nice but was not quite right for me. I can't quite remember what the difference was but there was a clear difference between the two.

There's a load of information on this thread that might be useful:
