Flat C

Author: rc.prestige

I have a Buffet RC Prestige A clarinet that I like to use a Buffet ICON barrel with as it improves the intonation all over. It does, however, cause slight flatness on high C (upper clarion). I can lip it up but it's a little uncomfortable to do so. Throat F is also a bit flat, but I'm more or less accustomed to dealing with that.

Are any slight tone hole adjustments possible to raise the C (and throat F)? Or am I better off either learning to live with it, or exploring alternative barrel options?
