    Good Points: Good looking flute, even has French pointed arms on it.
    Plays easily in the lowest register and sounds best in the middle register.


    Bad Points: Not pleasant to the ears when you play in the highest register.
    The mechanism isn't too strong, the (I'm Dutch don't know the proper word in English) things which the pads are mounted on to don't close well, and my flute constantly had to be taken to the shop to be repaired. (My flute was bought new, I only had it two years)


    General comments: I think the flute is overpriced in comparison to it's capabilities.
    My friend has a Yamaha 211 flute and it sounds as good for less money and is more reliable.

    I bought the Jupiter diMedici 1011 Flute after four years with a 911, which I still play. Jupiter have made changes in the last few years; the silver plating is better, and the G sharp key is smaller. I have found the silver tube improves the sound greatly. I recently fitted a second-hand Sankyo head-joint to it, and the sound is better still.

    Controlling the sharp tuning in the final octave is a problem when I play with a wind band.

    If you are upgrading to a flute in this price range, s ...
