Since jazz is your main focus I'd go with a Selmer of a Lablanc. I've played a lot of jazz in the military bands, mainly the sax, but also some clarinet licks. The Buffet I had was a bit resistant, so I used the Selmer supplied by the military band, which was the 9 series.
I'm not up on the latest Selmer's or Lablanc's so take a look at those and try them out. Needless to say pick the one that feels best. I really liked the key work on the free blowing Selmer. It just feels really great compared to the Buffet and I found it really fun to play.
