ParticipantCan you travel to Loveland CO? The Harp Shoppe there and Kolacny Music in Denver both have great service and harps to try out.

ParticipantI decided to get the Aurora. It just sounds so fantastic. Thank you everyone!
Michael Sommer
ParticipantThank you. Alexandra sent me a bunch of videos too. It is good to hear all of them.

ParticipantI talked to Alexandra for a long time and she convinced me not to go and see the Aurora. She said that the new Auroras are very different from the old ones found in a lot of music depts. Now, I am leaning back to the Salvi which is where I started when I wrote this thread. I am hoping the skype performances on these two tomorrow can help me settle the issue. Thank you and everyone for their help. 🙂

ParticipantI know someone with an Atlantide but she has light tension strings on it so it would be very different. I love everything you said as well. I was leaning towards the Aurora but now am leaning towards the Atlantide. It will be a very hard choice but I am super happy that I can test out an Aurora tonight to see how it feels to put it on my shoulder. The Atlantide cost a lot less as well so that is a draw in. I appreciate hearing from you especially since you have played both brands a lot. The Apollo is not in the picture which is good because it is hard to choose among two! Thank you!

ParticipantNever say never. I was able to locate an Aurora that is an hour and a half from where I live. I am going to go see it in an hour or so. Thank you so much for the extra encouragement. With the info of how it feels plus hearing it tomorrow along with the Camac, I should be able to make a decision. Thank you so much!

ParticipantThere is no one with a Salvi Aurora near me and I am pretty sure the Camac will feel a lot like the Athena which I play each week. I wish I could! A long plane ride is out of the question for me right now as well.
I have left a message with Alexandra. I thought of the Aurora but I think it may be too big of a sound for where I am now, if that makes sense. I know people love them.
Thank you so much for writing in. I look forward to hearing what Salvi says. I get to hear each harp again tomorrow.
Michael Sommer
ParticipantIt was another dealership but I have spoken to several dealerships so far. I will call Salvi again. If I buy the Aurora, I was planning to get it at the Harp Connection as they have one in stock that I like.
Thank you for the reminder about calling Salvi. Can you really negotiate a warranty?
