I tried Legeres for a time and gave them a fair shot, using them in a variety of performance situations. I went back to cane and was much happier with the results.
In my experiences, I found them to be a bit inconsistent reed to reed and fussy about the set up on my mouthpiece. To my ears and feel, they did not have the ring, dynamics and flexibility that I get from cane. While some rave about playability, I found they changed a bit after about 20 minutes of playing. Part way through a rehearsal or longer gig they seemed tired and I often would need to swap them out.
I have heard many raves and have heard some players sound terrific using them. Whether it be that they did not really match my set up or that I am too set in my ways, but I found cane to be superior for my tastes.
