I have often wondered about feeling vibrations in your hands. Ideally there should be no vibrations exiting the horn that your hands can feel. The ideal horn (non-existent) is said to be one which doesn't vibrate at all, allowing all sound vibrations to come out the bell. Is it possible those vibrations you feel are being subtracted from those which should be coming out of the bell?
