 Re: Which large bore clarinets to buy?

The B&H Imperial 926 and 1010 are entirely different animals.
When I regularly played B&H instruments in my earlier days I greatly preferred the 926, with it's slightly smaller bore and more focussed tone (but still not as focussed as the French instruments)
But that of course is very much a subjective matter.

I then moved to a new pair of Leblanc LLs because I was looking for that greater focus, and have played then ever since, although I still have some 926s in my armory. Plus a pair of 1010s that I will never play now, but will one day service and pass on to some 1010 enthusiast.

A couple of professional players I have spoken to over the years, moved from 926s to 1010s not really for tonal reasons, in fact one definitely preferred his sound on the 926, but because the 1010 was a more powerful instrument. And some conductors were always asking for more and more sound.
