{"product_id":"magnetones-full-kit-magnetic-resonator-system","title":"Magnetones Full Kit — Magnetic Resonator System","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne kit, ready for your tech. Pick your horn and a starting resonator style, and the kit arrives with the backing magnets your horn needs and a full set of resonators already magnetized. Your tech installs it during your next overhaul or repad, adding about 15 minutes to the job, and from then on you swap resonators yourself in minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing: Standard fit is the factory-style choice and the safe default. Oversized covers more of each pad and is the experiment. Both arrive as a full set; if you're torn, Standard, and the door stays open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the problem it solves. You can experiment with every part of your setup, reeds, mouthpieces, ligatures, even your neck, except the resonators under your pads. Those get chosen once, at overhaul time, and an overhaul commits you to that choice for something like ten years. Comparing resonators has always meant paying for another overhaul to change your mind, so almost nobody ever does it, and the arguments about them never get settled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow it works: a small backing magnet is glued to the back of each pad while your tech does the overhaul they were going to do anyway. Your pads install exactly as normal; the magnet has no role in holding the pad in the cup. Each resonator carries a matching magnet, so it snaps into place through the pad and lifts out with a small lever tool. No glue, no rivets, no tech visit to change a setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat I'll claim and what I won't. A larger resonator covers more of the soft pad with hard material, which reflects more sound back down the bore, and reads brighter; a smaller one leaves more pad exposed and reads darker. Material and shape are a different story: the one blind test on record couldn't tell domed plastic from domed metal at the same size, and tested nothing else. Nobody has run the experiment on your horn, your sizes, your shapes. This kit is how you run it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResonators chosen at an overhaul leave with the pads when the pads wear out, including the expensive ones. Magnetones resonators outlive the pads: when you overhaul again, or move to another horn one day, the set transfers with you. Additional resonator sets are $75, and you install those yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit carries a resonator for every pad on your horn. Fit misses, when they happen, show up on a few odd-sized pads, so the guarantee works like this: tell me your make, model, and partial serial, and if any resonator size keeps a pad from sealing I'll replace those pieces free, up to five, within 30 days. That covers fit, the pad sealing, not taste; taste is yours to explore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt checkout, put your saxophone's make, model, and partial serial in the order note. It activates the fit guarantee, and every horn logged makes the size charts better for the next player.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI'm a repair tech of 13 years and I built this on my own bench because I wanted the answer myself. Custom requests go to me directly. Every order comes straight to me, and I answer everything myself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magnetones","offers":[{"title":"Soprano \/ Plastic \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560898813999,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Seamless Domed \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560898945071,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560898977839,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Flat Metal \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899010607,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Plastic \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899043375,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Seamless Domed \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899076143,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899108911,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Flat Metal \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899141679,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Plastic \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899174447,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Seamless Domed \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899207215,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899239983,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Flat Metal \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899272751,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Plastic \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899305519,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Seamless Domed \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899338287,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899371055,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Flat Metal \/ Standard fit","offer_id":45560899403823,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Plastic \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669624367,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Seamless Domed \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669657135,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669689903,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Soprano \/ Flat Metal \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669722671,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Plastic \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669755439,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Seamless Domed \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669788207,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669820975,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Alto \/ Flat Metal \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669853743,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Plastic \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669886511,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Seamless Domed \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669919279,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669952047,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tenor \/ Flat Metal \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564669984815,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Plastic \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564670017583,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Seamless Domed \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564670050351,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Metal Domed (SA80 style) \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564670083119,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baritone \/ Flat Metal \/ Oversized","offer_id":45564670115887,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/magnetones.com\/products\/magnetones-full-kit-magnetic-resonator-system","provider":"Magnetones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
