Of all the oboes I tried at IDRS, the Yamaha line definitely held its own. Strangely, for me the Euro models seemed closer to my beloved Covey then the American ones. (Bore differences, I was told, but I cannot really explain them...)
Of the several other top and suiter brands there, only the Howarth was a decidedly a notch above.
I have used Yamaha gear (electronic stuff, synths, and a wind controller) for years and find it excellent overall. I bought a 500-series (entry pro flute) a couple years ago and remain very happy with it.
