The chime rod clock costs less and is less temperamental than the tubular chime clock. Some feel the sound of the tubular chime is better than the chime rod, and it is quite different. When the hammer strikes the tubular chime, the tube is set into motion and the pitch is more accurate than the chime rod, however the decay (the time the tube continues to resonate) is quite a bit longer. This creates an effect where the different pitches start to run into each other. This is not so obvious on the simpler Westminster melody, where only four of the tubes are being struck, but very noticeable on the more complex melodies like the Whittington and the St. Michaels chimes, where 8 tubes are used.<\/p>\n<p>The tubular chime array behind the pendulum is impressive in appearance and becomes a part of the aesthetics of the clock, as shown in the images below:<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.grandfatherclocks123.com\/images\/chime_rod_window.jpg\" width=\"110\" height=\"286\" border=\"0\" \/><\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Chime Rod Grandfather Clock<\/b><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.grandfatherclocks123.com\/images\/tubular_chime_window.jpg\" width=\"110\" height=\"286\" border=\"0\" \/><\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Tubular Grandfather Chime Clock<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Both Traditional Chime Rod and Tubular Chime Grandfather clocks are available through The Clock Depot, and free delivery is available anywhere within the cont.
