This is a personal matter, not a question of taste... it's what produces the best fit and sound for YOU...
The Pyne mouthpieces are hand finished, and play-tested by the maker.
The Glotin is mass-produced.
The best mouthpiece is the one that allows you to play comfortably, in all ranges of the instrument; at all dynamic levels.
Trust a tuner and believe the way it feels. Other people's impression is considerably less important than your own.
There is no substitute for actual testing, with a good reed, at your leisure.

but you do need to test it in various situations. A mouthpiece might sound great in a small room, but when introduced to a large hall it may not be so great. That's the same exact situation my high school instructor had with his M15. Great for when close up, but when tested in a large hall it was thin and weak.
