SOUND: Tina vs Tina Hybrid (1 Viewer)

[Drosoph]

Does a Tina Hybrid sounds different (better?) than a Tina chip? I habe heard they have a better/deeper sound. Is this true? Any experiences?

Thank you

They sound different. Get samples!

Not only sound but feel. I think the hybrids are widely considered the best offering from Tina.

Grab some samples!

The other huge advantage the hybrids have over no mold and card mold chips, is no spinners.

To me, the hybrids have a lower "clack" sound than other ceramics. They are the closest sounding to compression clays than any other ceramic chip that I've heard.

I get the appeal of the hybrids, but do we really need to compare and decide which Tina chip sound better than the other? They sound like a chip that will get you by until you’re ready for a proper plunge down the rabbit hole

And yet, when many people comment about why they love their clay chips, one of the features is their sound.

That was exactly my point

From your post, to me it appeared you were saying, “Why bother discussing the sound on a ceramic, they’re just a place-holder until you get something proper.”
Did I misunderstand?

No, you didn’t. It was a joke. One might enjoy how nice the engine of a Ferrari sounds but it’s not a thing when choosing between a Honda or a Toyota.

How can they feel different? I’ve handled both. Of course, the mold affects the feel, but most of the time I grab the chips by the edge.

I think the hybrids have a bit sharper edges than the no-molds, but it’s not a big difference at all.

I’ve handled the CM, NM and Hybrids and to me the combination of the mold, label and edges feel different. Generally it’s just the edges of a chip being handled but dragging pots, pushing stacks etc I notice the mold and label. If I am not mistaken wasn’t the hybrid chip slightly thicker also? I thought someone posted barrels next to each other but could be wrong.
