I would be very interested in trying some of the German reform Boehm instruments - Leitner & Kraus, Schwenk & Seggelke, etc. and if they were appreciably superior to my current instruments, I'd probably buy a set. Without a US rep, however, that's a challenge and not likely to happen.
Alternatively, I wonder why none of these makers participate at Clarinetfest? That would be a good way to get exposure to the US market. I'd make a trek to next year's convention (granted, the location is particularly convenient) for the sole purpose of trying even one brand. If they can't personally commit the time, perhaps they could partner with someone like Wolfgang Lohff, who will probably be exhibiting anyway.
