Clark,

Very interesting comments. Can you expand on one point you made please

"2. The volume of the chamber has an inverese relationship to the
volume of the bore."

What relationship is this? Do you imply that a small chamber should
have a large bore? If so, where do German and English mouthpieces fit
in which, to my untrained eye, both have large chambers and large
bores?
