Can you rephrase the question please? Do you mean: Do cheap violins sound good? If that is what you mean, I can answer that. I have just passed my grade 4 with merit, so I know quite a bit about violins. It really depends on the player, you see. But the older the violin is the better it sounds. I am just about to by a good, old one. the price range for older ones, are probably minimum of £650-£700, minimum. The older it is, the better the wood is. The most bottom range that you can get of violins is an Antoni. Starter violins. I recommend you start on an Antoni, as they are very cheap, so if you decide that you don't want to play anymore, then you havn't lost lots of money. If you definitely are going to play, then try a Stentor violin. That is better, and it costs about £80-£150.
I hope you found this helpful.
