I am thinking of purchasing a soprano sax, and I want to know if anybody has ever heard of a "laval" brand saxaphone.I want to make sure I get a quality saxaphone.I know nothing of this brand or model.

the brands you stick by for the sax are Selmer and Yamaha. buying a lesser known manufacturer can lead to problems as they are rather new and the quality hasn't had enough tiome to perfect yet, or they are not know because they have crap instruments. i have an S&B soprano, it works great. if you are to buy a sax that is less known, go to a music dealer and try it out. over the internet, you have no idea what you could be buying. hope this helps.

Yanagisawa is perhaps the best modern manufacturer of Soprano Saxophones. *Recent* Antigua Winds horns draw a lot of praise for their overall value. You can get one of these for $1000 new.

I bought my WWBW Sop in feb of 2002 and i love it. It's the New York kind or other brand of theirs, it's Blaze. Not only is the color/appearnce good, but i LOVE the sound. I'm not a good one to tell about what brands, but the WWBW kinda is good.
