Have you checked your speaker tubes to be sure they're clear of any build-up? That will affect the response and quality of the upper register B. On some A clarinets, the upper register B is not as good quality as the D due to the placement and diameter of the speaker tube which is nearly at it's limit for this note.

How cleanly does low E speak? Ignore the fact it's on the flat side as that's normal with the majority of clarinets, just concentrate on the ease of response and tone quality of that note. I doubt you'll have any problems with low E.
