If you are planning to upgrade your clarinet, I suggest upgrading in this order: 1. mouthpiece 2. the clarinet itself 3. barrel or ligature 4. bell

I agree with Geronimo on the barrel and bell. Don't rush to upgrade them, since they are not as important as the clarinet and mouthpiece. Now if you end up playing super flat, then yes a different barrel is important, but worry about that later, after you settle on a mouthpiece and clarinet.

I do not believe that Vandoren mouthpieces fit their reeds better than other branded mouthpieces. So don't limit yourself to Vandoren. Take a look at Behn, Fobes, D'Addario, Selmer, and other companies.
