**********************GIRSA SECTION*********************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any other important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos.
[1] Gemara 10b [line 37]:
The words "va'Aleihem Amar David" åòìéäí àîø ãåã
should be "va'Aleihem Amar Kra" åòìéäí àîø ÷øà (TOSFOS DH va'Aleihem)
[2] Gemara 10b [line 42]:
The words "Tani Raban Shimon ben Gamliel" úðé øáï ùîòåï áï âîìéàì
should be corrected as suggested by Shitah Mekubetzes #17
[3] Gemara 10b [line 45]:
"Hardavlim" äøãåìéí
This is the Girsa of Tosfos. Rashi's Girsa is "Hardavlas" äøãååìéñ
[4] Rashi 10b DH u'Me'arbev ã"ä åîòøáá:

It is not at all clear what the intention of the word "v'Chen" is here. It is possible that Raban Shimon ben Gamliel is citing another example of a counter-intuitive practice that was done in the Mikdash. Although the Hardavlim is normally the most esteemed and melodious of instruments, its hardy sound only lessened the beauty of the harmony produced by the other instruments in the Mikdash.
