Op TM loopt ook al enige tijd een discussie over met name de Yamaha SB.
Deze post zegt iets over waar wij hier druk mee zijn:
I think many of these posts that try and remedy the acknowledged flaws of the SB and other silent systems kind of miss the purpose of the system. I know for years I didn't use mine because it wasn't perfect and was "stuffy". How many lip hours did I miss that could have benefited me? How many SB owners aren't users because ______? It isn't and was never designed for continued practice. It's great for hotel rooms and occasional times when you have to practice but it would disturb others. The newer SB is better, but I've still heard complaints. It's endorsed by some of the biggest names in Trumpetdom
! Do you think they practice with it all the time? Nah. Someone says, "I didn't mess up my chops and ear using an SB", me, "Did you practice?". Uh, Uh, Uh, well, um...
