new or used A?

hello everyone! i am a freshman performance major who needs an A clarinet. my first intention was to take out a loan and get a new R13 A, but after speaking with several clarinetist i know i was advised to get an used A. the reasoning behind getting one used is that i can play and perform on it and figure out what i really want from an A, then get a new one down the line. i can understand why it would be helpful to get used to an A, but is it really detrimental to get an A with little experiance on it?

p.s.: can anyone summarize the major differences between A and Bb? (besides resistance)
