Zinner Blank Sidewalls?

Can anyone give me an objective comparison between the Zinner blank with angeled sidewalls and the one with straight sidewalls? Are there differences in pitch, color, resistance, etc.? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes I have questions about the same issue.....when trying out my G. Smith Mpc. He mentioned something about the angled sie walls, but I didn't ask him about what the real difference was. He did say that It allows the volume of the chamber to stay the same while having the beffle of the mouthpioece closer to the reed. What this does to the tone I have no idea....
I wish I had asked him to let me posibly try the angled sidewalls. I have been courious about the issue ever since.......
