V21 vs. D'Addario Reserve [Classic]

Author: WhitePlainsDave

Questions:

1) I've read here that the V21 was Vandoren's answer to the Rico Reserve, and now revamped D'Addario Reserve product lines of reeds. Is there some truth to this?

2) For those with some experience using both the V21 and D'Addario Reserve (Classic of not) product lines, which do you like you better? If so why? I know it may be hard to judge as neither has been in the market that long.

Biases: I have been blown away by the near out of the box playability and consistency of the D'Addario Reserve Classic product line.

Granted, everything is subject to change, but I think what I'm looking for is even a reason to delve into the V21 product line if I'm getting such good fortune with the D'Addario Reserve Classic product line.

(I do not work in the music business.)

Thanks.
