Re: Power Barrel Occasions

I happen to use the Doctor's Power Barrel in marching band. Strangely enough, I'm the major soloist for the show this year as a clarinetist. Anyway, I did not hear a significant difference. The tone was a noticable improvement from the stock barrel, clearly. The projection difference was not so substantial for myself.

However, I'm speaking of a plastic Bundy.

On my R13, I use the Backun Coco Traditional barrel. After playing in my orchestra and playing the solos, I noticed this made quite a difference in projection for me since last season. The resistance was slightly less allowing the tone to be big yet the sound was more dark/round. Backun can surely make a barrel.
