Hi,
I just tested a Legere signature 2.0 reed and it works remarkably well for me.
It is in tune all the way from the bottom right up to Gb6, which is as far as I go. I tried crossing the break legato from C4 to C5 and a number of other ones like that, and, if anything they were easier than my unadjusted Vandoren Classic 1.5.
At first the sound didn't seem to really ring nicely for me, but I think it got better and after a while I didn't notice much difference between them. I will need to try several times to really be sure of that.
I noticed that if the signature is at exactly the usual height on the mp it plays in tune for me, but if I move it up to have the tip of the reed level with the tip of the mp then it plays very flat in the chalumeau register.
Thanks to Beth for sending me in this direction. I like the reed. :-)
