Sniping at LaVoz while liking Ricos also makes no sense--they are made my
the same company, cut on the very same machines to what apparently are
exactly the same specifications. At one point, I was told that all of the
"America-cut" Ricos were exactly the same, except they "LaVoz" got stamped
on the reeds that were more yellow in color.

If La Voz reeds don't work for you, don't buy them. But to snipe at them
at the same time you are defending Ricos smacks of hypocrisy.

If you have to mic a saxophone, the rest of the band is too loud.
