Well to be totally honest the horn and the mouthpiece don't match the players potential, when he articulates the upper register you hear the tongue hitting the reed first. Sorry I don't like this. The setup isn't correct. I'd have to sit down with the player and find out if it's the horn or the mouthpiece or both.
One of the reasons why I switched horns a few years ago. I think the issue is the tube on the octave key is too short or too long. Don't think the mouthpiece can fix this, but add to the issue.
The player is surely talented. But his articulation on to the reed may or may not be his fault. Behind the tip of the mouthpiece there is that drop. Too much of a drop will cause this unpleasantness.
$450? Not me...
