kdk, after reading Brad's explanation of the 6 degree "slackness", I believe I have figured out what he is talking about.
Please refer to my, rather crude, 3 mouthpiece pictorial drawings during my written interpretation which may, of course, be entirely wrong. However, it seems to make sense to me in that all of the pieces of the puzzle appear to fit together exactly. (The pictorial drawings are, of course, totally exaggerated, on purpose, to hopefully amplify what I believe Brad is talking about.)
The only way I can interpret a 6 degree slackness, a lower baffle entrance, and "not as deep as conventional wisdom would dictate" is that there is a 6 degree "downward tilt" from the tenon end to the tip of the mouthpiece. Again, when I combine all of these 3 items, a downward tilt seems to fit the explanation exactly. This "downward tilt" would indeed yield a lower angle of baffle input and a baffle that is "not as deep as one might believe" when viewing directly into the baffle.
Just my opinionated interpretation...
p.s. On the 3rd pictorial drawing, the 84 degree measurement should be on the inside of the diagram rather than on the outside. The outside measurement would then be 96 degrees. Sorry about that...
