The Icon bells are thinner and lighter than a standard RC bell, and nicely made. They’re meant to be compatible with Buffet’s range of clarinets, so should be fine on an RC, but as ever, you’d have to try one to gauge how it works for you.
Buffet’s technical blurb says this:
“Technical Characteristics
Developed by Buffet Crampon, the shape of the ICON bell is narrowed at the midpoint and the base is ringless. The flare has been specifically redesigned to optimize projection of airflow. Beautifully produced with a choice three of finishes –gold, silver or black nickel – for the top ring, the ICON bell will help enrich your sound palette.
Acoustic Characteristics
The ICON bell offers a highly centered sound which facilitates tone production. The upper register is particularly fluid and the low tones are rich and powerful.
With its slender lines it weighs some 30% less than a traditional bell.“
