 Yamaha 250 vs CL1

Quick question or 2 here.
I'm looking to get one of these Resin Horns to play @ Outdoor Events in the colder Months.
Unfortunately I won't be to try before I buy one of these Horns. :(
Which might be the better choice?
What I'm looking for is a nice sounding Horn, very light in weight and with springy keys,not stiff
Thank You for any Info

Either one will do, but, frankly, for outdoor work you'll be better off with a Vito or even an old Bundy. With a good mouthpiece and perhaps a barrel, they play amazingly well. You sound like yourself on any horn.

Spring strength is up to you. Any repair shop can lighten the action.
