Lance,

No, I have not played a Reference 54. You are right about the MP and reed combination. When playing jazz or commercial gigs on the alto, I use a Meyer 7M mouthpiece and when playing classical, use a Van Doren V2 or an old Selmer short shank C*. Both mps take the same reeds pretty much so I am lucky. The sound is completely different.

However, with respect to the clarinet, I use the same setup for jazz as classical. On my Mark VI tenor, I use a Guy Hawkins 7 for jazz but for legit and classical use a Selmer E or a Bob Dukoff hard rubber with a fluted chamber.

PS If I had to buy a new sax quick, I'd drive 2 hours over to WWBW and try Yamaha Pro models. Excellent price, wonderful ergonomics, and a great big sound; a wonderful value. If I had a longer time, I'd hunt for a The Martin sax, an SML, a Buescher 400 Top Hat and Cane, or a King Super 20 followed by a repad and possible overhaul. I'd at least try the Reference at that time.
