I also have one of these mouthpieces. I tried three and all were great, they were all in the top five mouthpieces that I have played. I have tried hundreds of mouthpieces and even made quite a few. The one I purchased was the best I have ever played I knew in 30 seconds it was the one. I made a recording and loved the sound as a listener. Then I played all three for my mom who has no formal training in music. I played the one I baught last but did not tell her which or any I was considering she immediately within the first 10 seconds said, while I was still playing, that it sounded great. It was a done deal. I like to get a non players ear involved on something that is this pricey, relative of course, to make sure it is worth it.

As an aside, I found that on my vintage I like to play softer reeds. I have taken out almost all the bite and allowed the reed to resonate in conjunction with the rest of the equipment. I love the sound of these mouthpieces, I would not consider them "dark" don't quite understand that trend. The one I picked has a warm ringing sound with great articulation and the ability to change the timbre for a given piece but it is just as easy to keep a consistant sound.

I also have no affiliation, but I stopped making mouthpieces when I tried Brad's work it is truely exceptional.
