QuickTime movie showing the 3 balance lines for the front and back plates and the internal volume of bowed stringed instruments (created by NHK television).

This movie illustrates how the gravitational balance lines match exactly with the bridge position on the front plate and the soundpost position on the back plate. The 3rd balance line corresponds to the exact ½ of the internal volume with the sound post position.

I believe these 3 balance alignments maximize the transformation of kinetic energy from the player into sound energy of the instrument.

Interesting!
