I have a couple of old hard rubber and metal adjustable barrels that, while
they work fine, simply do not sound good. They are well designed to
function without creating a gap, but I think the necessity of having a
straight, rather than tapered, bore dooms them to mediocrity.

If you have to mic a saxophone, the rest of the band is TOO LOUD!
