Not to nitpick but the third bell sounds a bit off now and then, and the hour bell is just plain dull. This *could* be because of the leather tips on the hammers (or incorrect distance between the hammer tip and the bell). If the leather is causing the issue, you can harden it using a lighter (do this carefully). I have yet to hear a really nice Seth Thomas Sonora. After having heard several English clocks I'm always underwhelmed by these, but this one is one of the better ones I've heard.
This video was taken with a $100 camera. The audio is NOT the greatest and tends to get blown out. When I have a additional $2500.00 burning a hole in my pocket maybe I'll get a pro setup.
