I assume that you are confident that there are no prevailing "issues" with the "A" such as sealing, pitch too low etc.

This out of the way, there should not be THAT significant a difference between the Bb and A so that the set-up needs to be touched. If possibe, sit down with a competent repair guy to see if the "A" could stand some internal tweaking.

The easier fix may just be trying new barrels (I'm still hedging my bets on the horn playing too low - do some honest assessment with a good Korg).

I have heard the Yamaha "A" horns are much less resistant but I have no direct experience and I really hesitant to even suggest the answer to any problem is to buy a whole new horn.
