stevesklar -- many many thanks. BTW, my wife reminded me I was wrong about the price on the Accent in my post. The CL920W was $1595 (before applying any rental credit).

Everyone -- We will be heading over to the dealer after school in about an hour. Although we will not be able to arrange a professional listener to join us, we will certainly have the option to have the band director listen to the instrument we choose to see if she agrees with our decision. We will use the same mouthpiece on all the instruments we try, and I will ask my daughter why she likes, or doesn't like, a particular instrument to try as best I can to take issues of poor adjustment out of the equation. I agree about the comments that the instruments should all sound pretty good, and that's probably the thing that has me the most paranoid to begin with -- that the Yamaha may have been (emphasis on "may") set up poorly on upgrade night to drive sales toward the Accent instruments. That may be really unfair, so I want to wait and see.

One wild card here is the Ridenour option, which is intriguing ... not sure how to factor that in yet unless I can buy more time from the local dealer.
