Re: O rings on mouthpieces

To answer Walter’s original question:

1. I use o-rings on one mouthpiece. I like them, and I’ve consistently been frustrated by cork compressing over the years. So they are a good solution for that. I did have an issue where neither the smaller nor larger o-rings fit quite right on the upper barrel socket, leaving a little gap where the mouthpiece essentially couldn’t be pushed in all at the way. This was frustrating, and something I’ve never had happen with another mouthpiece. It worked fine with other barrels.

2. Things are never equal, but I guess I might just barely choose o-rings over cork.
