Banangerine,

I believe you are over-thinking this. You may be approaching the point of "paralysis by analysis."

First order of business is to get an instrument that plays well and in tune, learn to make it work, then worry about bright or dark and the reed thickness later. You have a long way to go yet but in a year or so, you can begin to experiment with reeds.

Comparing sound files is very difficult. To demonstrate this, check out the Mike Lowenstern's ligature example. Could you tell the difference? He sounds great on everything; good players have that gift.
