Ruben, I'm not sure what your question really means.
Oboes are made with lined upper joints and played by top oboists. Selmer lined the 10G barrels and Moennig, Jacobi and Hammer often lined barrels at customers' requests. So, there's certainly a history of linings going back well into the last century.
Beyond that, I don't know that your question is really answerable.
If you want to compare one of these lined Selmers to other makers' clarinets, you won't know if any differences in sound are the result of the lining or some other parameter.
If you want to know whether or not the same Selmer instrument without a lining will sound different, you can't know unless you have an unlined duplicate to compare to the lined one.
In the end, the important issue, I would think, is how it sounds on its own, regardless of the presence or absence of a lining.
