Vandoren B44 : very easy, clear sound, but loss of low frequency, too clear and medium-friendly for me.
Pomarico : tested it on a Leblanc and a Bundy, I did'nt like the feeling but it's great : very rich sound, powerful.
Selmer C* : I have two of them, the one given with my Selmer alto in the case, and another one second hand on Reverb.com thinking about keeping a back-up mouthpiece in case of "accident". Well... the second one is different, more low fequencies and more punch, the one given with the clarinet is more "open". So the second C* I had became immediatly my main mpc.
For me the Selmer C* is cool, I like the overhall comfort, it matches with my Légère alto sax Studio cut 2,5. Tested it too on a Bundy, it improved the sound a lot compared to the Bundy stock mouthpiece.

Yes, I saw an old Selmer catalog with HS*, C, C*, C**, HS**/D and E models for alto... now it seems that there's only C* left, since Selmer decide to keep only their Focus and Concept mouthpieces for B.flat, A and Bass clarinets, but did'nt create a new Alto model, they keep C* standard by default for alto, contralto and contrabass. In fact, even when they created the CP line and the C85 line, they had only B.flat/A, E.flat and Bass models. I wish we had a C85 120 for alto, I like it very much on the B.flat.
