I have tried 10's of Buffets and a few less Leblancs......I find similar
variations between them......further, I find no better "scale" or continuit=
y of sound=20
quality top to bottom with the Leblancs than I do with the Buffets. In
fact, when comparing the Opus with the Prestige R-13, I find the horns to
play remarkably similar with regard to the defined "accoustical balance".

If that opinion is unacceptable....sorry! I wonder, other than your
opinion.......why should we accept the adverse??
