Mouthpieces, again

Author: trish24

I am still considering purchasing a new mouthpiece and didn't receive any responses to my last post so maybe didn't ask the right questions.
I have been playing for three years.
I live in a regional area so it s not possible to try a number of mouthpieces so I know it's a little risky so maybe need to play it safe.
I have a Buffet E11 and have only ever played a B45 mouthpiece.
I am assuming that I should stay close to its specifications ( 119, ML) and have looked at the B40 Lyre on the vandoren site.
It says L facing and "easy blowing in the upper register"
All other things being equal, what difference does the L facing make to playing and tone.
Can anyone comment on the B40 Lyre, generally? Any other suggestions for me?
