I also play the BD5 with my RC Prestige, and I like this mouthpiece very much. It is my current favorite. Before that my favorites were the B45dot and the B40 (why B40d??). I find the sound of the BD5 quite similar to the B40, that is, quite "warm" (and *not* bright). But for me the BD5 is easier to play than the B40, in particular in the altissimo, and I wanted to use stronger reeds. (I now use V.12 and V21 3.0 to 3.5.) Sometimes I would like to have some more brightness or brilliance, like with the B45dot. But since I have the BD5 I cannot play the B4** any longer, since now they feel too open for me. For me it seems that the BD5 also has the tendency (with some stronger reeds) to make reed-noise.
