Apples vs oranges ? ; Buffet Crampon R13 vs Selmer 10G ?

I’ve read many comments on this most interesting and valuable forum about these vintage instruments (as well as many other fascinating subjects, a true goldmine!). They seem to have been the acme of the art for their era. Regretfully I have not had the opportunity to try either of them.

There are a number of comments here about the R13 and 10G individually, including one that seemed to rank these two equally in playing quality and well above others like the 9*. But nothing on what distinguishes them among themselves. Is it possible to compare, or rather contrast them, or is this just a futile exercise and a case of personal taste?

I’m afraid I may be suffering from a bad case of “chasing the ring & ping”. Thanks for your enlightenments, or direction to previous discussions I may have missed.
