Since you have already tried Mouthpiece Magic and already have a list of
pros and cons, would you recommend it?

I'm only in high school, but I've been having a lot of trouble with the bass
clarinet and tenor sax reaching certain notes and both sound muffled.
(though I admit my tenor sax playing isn't that great either) I've had other
more experienced band members test my tenor sax with their mouthpieces and
it sounds so great. I've played bass clarinet for quite some time and
recently I had to start using another mouthpiece which is when it started
getting muffled.

Thanks for your time!
