I have both the hercules and the k&m. I prefer the k&m. the hercules has the habit of sticking in the bell when I lift the clarinet off of it the falling back on the ground. That is on my R13. I think it is because The little yellow plastic piece is on a spring and goes up into the bell past the tennon. Also the collapsable legs sometimes close a little causing the clarinet to angle a little like the leaning tower of pisa. It has never fallen but I am always afraid it might. It does fit in the bell and causes no problems there.

The reason I originally got it is because the k&m sticks out a little from the bell. I found if you modify the case just a little cut down between the bell and barrel you can keep the k&m in the case too. Let it pass through the bell and slightly into the barrel. That is on my buffet case.

That being said I like the k&m better although I have not yet bought another. I just use one for each clarinet.
