I'll go one further on the Privilege. They have an incredibly focused and woody timbre. The intonation and the color of the horn was even throughout all its registers. This is unlike many R13s that have some anomalies throughout and requires trying out a fairly large sample to find a particularly good one (though they DO exist).

The ONLY reason I didn't just snap up a pair is strictly one of economics. I have a pair of Yamahas that work just fine and the cost of the new Selmers is rather high (around a list price of $4500 each).

I am not much of a Backun fan so I wouldn't put the Selmers or the Buffets in the same category. Perhaps the Chadash or the Rossi clarinets would be a better comparison.
