GHS Cuckoo - Gaius's

Question - can anyone answer this: why is it Beha and the 19th century makers make the cuckoo call acceptably realistic and slow, yet the present manufacturers can't - or won't? I've heard them ridiculously fast on the 2-weighters and, rarely, acceptably slow on the big beasty 8-day modern ones. Also, no real attempt at making the cuckoo birds themselves appear authentic - like Beha and others did.

I wanted to ask a couple of modern small volume cuckoo makers that very question the last time I was in Triberg. I wouldn’t mind buying a modern clock if the attention to detail was the same as the antique clocks.
