Thanks for the suggestions Paul.
On the reeds, I got some V21s - as with the 56s, they only go down to #2.5, and I'm already using #3. Not much I can do there, they simply don't make them light enough. The hissing was only gone with an extremely soft reed, a Rico #2 I had lying around. The Legeres... what can I say, I _really_ want to like their sound to get rid of the reed nit-picking thing, but the canes always sound a lot better to me.
By the way, when I mention "getting a clarinet that fits," I'm including in that leaving my 576BC with my repair person to try and get the problem fixed; or trying all sorts of other reeds from other brands; and so on. In other words, "making it work." The sound I got from it was much closer to what I'm currently looking for than I can currently achieve with my setup, close enough that it may be worthwhile to adjust my setup around it.
Cheers,
- Cesar
