Hi all!
I have compiled a list of possible flutes I could buy and I need opinions on them!!!! I am going to try them, but I have only been playing flute for 6 months so i'm still a young novice and need info on their reliability!!! Here is my list:

Jupiter 711
Azumi 2000 RBE
Sonare SF-501BEF
Yamaha 361H

Could I get some opinions on these? All help will be appreciated!

Hi Pyface,
All flutes mentioned are very nice. You really couldn't go wrong with any of them as long as the flute is a good fit for you. My personal favorite and preference would be the Azumi. These are outstanding flutes and I just love the way they play and sound. Do try them all out if you can like Suzie suggested. That is the only way you are really going to know for sure. Have fun and good luck with it! Keep us posted and let us know what you decide.

Hi all!
I've found a site that will let me try all these flutes! It's called the Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company and they offer a free trial service! Here's the link to the site, it's very good!

I will try them two at a time, as Suzie suggested and see which one I like!
Thanks for the comments guys! I'll keep you posted!
P.S Check out this site, it's very reasonable!

They still put a hold on your credit card for each flute, some don't do this. That is why I prefer going though JL Smith. I don't use credit cards if I can help it.
Have fun trialing them!

Pyface, did you try out all these flutes you mentioned?
How do they compare head-to-head (there are few head-to-head comparisons out there)? Did you end up buying any of those, and if so then which one and why? And if not then why not?

Thanks,

Vitaly
