Most of the posts here seem to focus exclusively on the formation of the lips as the secret to having a good sound.
As a teacher I would say this view is a little simplistic, obviously the lip formation (as first point of contact with the reed) is important. It may be worth while to explore other ideas also.
Use the search function and check out the posts on voicing.
A check on breathing and the role of the diaphragm may also help.
There are numerous articles on equipment, mouthpieces etc..
Be aware of the subjective nature of what a "good" sound is. experiment and listen to decide what your ideal is.
We talk about having a good sound, but most musicians use a number of sounds depending on the musical context.
