Just wondering how many times we'll all have this same conversation. There is no best. Please try as many as you can, and pick the one that works for you - including intonation, tuning, and sound. If you don't know how to do this and are afraid of getting a "lemon", have a player you trust (maybe your clarinet teacher) pick one for you. Since I don't play Eb, I know that after I thought I found one that was good I'd have it checked out by another, disinterested party.

Keep in mind, you probably want to maintain consistency with all of your clarinets (ie same brand Bb, a, Eb...) The idea is to match sound and color characteristics....
