If you can find a Charles Bay piece with an open tip, I think his most open was about .080, you'll get more volume than just about any stock piece. A Selmer H (.090 I believe) is pretty loud too. But I agree with Mojo. Better to play Tenor Sax. Get a high baffle screamer piece to compete with the brass.
By the way, years ago when I was heavily into bass clarinet I had Charlie make me a couple of bass clarinet pieces to my specifications. One was a .102 tip and was marked VO-L (very open tip long facing length). This piece played very well with a Fibracell soft reed. The other piece was a .106 tip and was marked EO-L (extremely open tip long facing length). I'd say this piece was about one step beyond what could be played by a mortal human.
