WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

My investment in a DOLFINOS already paid off many times!

Gregory Maytan

1st Concertmaster, Anhaltische Philharmonie, Dessau

The DOLFINOS Violin Rest system is an innovative and ingenious solution for violinists. It offers the player the opportunity to personalize the shoulder and chinrest precisely to their body type. I feel it offers physical freedom and comfort while helping the sound of the instrument. I encourage violinists to give it a try."

Noah Bendix-Balgley

1st Concertmaster, Berlin Philharmonic, Germany

I play the DOLFINOS now for nearly 2 years and I warmly recommend it to my colleagues and students. 

Prof. Anton Sorokow

1st concertmaster Vienna Symphonic Orchestra

When I had my Carnegie Hall debut, the DOLFINOS Rest System really made a huge difference in sound, comfort and reliability.

Alma Deutscher

Austria

Why I chose DOLFINOS: 1) No more pressure points on collarbone, 2) the instrument can vibrate completely freely, nothing disturbs the sound, which becomes bigger and freer

You can't expect more!

Lukas Hufnagl

Austria

The shoulder rest does not fall off again and again. The violin sits more stably than ever before, without constricting. The sensitive varnish on the side of my violin is not repeatedly scraped off by the shoulder rest. And the sound seems "freer" to me.

Andreas Garzotto

Switzerland

My motivation is a rest system which doesn’t kill sound. For years I played without a rest for that reason, but I have a very long neck and it eventually became untenable for my body. I tried several rests and eventually chose the DOLFINOS because the sound I get with it is far and away bigger and better than with any other system.

FEEDBACK FROM OUR AIR EDITION PLAYERS

I am so happy happy to have found the DOLFINOS Rest System! The fit is extremely comfortable and I am able to play the Amati my mom left to me. She passed a year ago, but her violin vibrating over my heart brings me close to her once more.

Asenath Cadavos

Music Instructor, Pioneer Dolfinos player, Philippines

It's amazing, that it's just there for you. And once you're holding it, it just stays in place and you can move freely.

Maya Meron

Switzerland

Back in July of last year I received your pioneer edition of the AIR and marveled at the precision of its manufacture, its elegance of appearance, but mostly its lightness, minimal space to connect to the violin.and the extraordinary variety of adjustments to get the shoulder and chin rests just right.

J. M.

United States

When you consider what a set of high-quality strings costs, new bow covers etc., i.e. the annual costs for all those wear parts that should and are regularly renewed for purely tonal reasons, the price for a DOLFINOS system is abruptly put into perspective. Because here you get a permanent tonal improvement as one feature among several.

Max Hilfenhaus

Germany

It is a great and important thing for Violin and Viola players. If they don't have a great shoulder rest, they will lose a lot of power! DOLFINOS can help you with this 😊 Thank you for giving me this great chance to share your great product with all the world!

THE PURE WAY TO PLAY.

Perform without a shoulder rest and profit from the cutting-edge technology. Enhance your sound and comfort.
Watch

Finally the solution after 60 years of chinrest experiments. I have certainly tried 98 different models in my professional life and spent millions on physiotherapy as a result of orthopedic problems due to non-fitting chin rests. I am absolutely thrilled, both by the functionality as well as the material and the convincing design and will certainly tell my colleagues about it.

Prof. Hans Joachim Greiner

Germany

I can say that the PURE Edition has been installed on my violin and I am very happy with it! It is lightweight, sturdy, ergonomic and has helped me transition successfully to playing without a shoulder rest!

David Ong

Australia

The Pure system has not only greatly expanded the tonal capacities of my Rocca, but with the adjustable height (a feature I’ve always wanted in my chin rest), my body is feeling more free with every passing day. It’s a remarkable feeling when certain muscle groups don’t have to work as hard as they once did, allowing for greater freedom in both arms.

Dylan Naroff

United States

I am an adult violin player and had been investing in all shoulder rests
since I started to play violin 5 years ago. None of them gave me a good
balance of flexibility and security. DOLFINOS has a great variety of
custom products that would fit your posture to maximize your performance with optimal comfort.
