In the string of threads about design that I have started (or brought back from the dead) is one on the considerable weakness of the low D. I find it to be especially weak compared to the notes around it, and even more weak on A clarinets. For some reason, all the notes are fairly consistent as to tone except that one which is fine at a soft volume, but stuffy at a loud volume.
I have tried making the hole bigger and/or filing into a sort of "undercut" shape (not using undercutting tools, so it's not exactly that). Usually, this makes an improvement in tone, but at the sacrifice of bringing pitch higher.
Any [good] ways to fix this?
