This is a very subtle thing, but I believe the stock Tosca barrel focuses the sound better because it somehow directs your tongue and palate to voice or "place" the tone more consistently to match the general tendency of the Tosca clarinet. So, if the Tosca clarinet wants to voice an "eee" sound the Tosca barrel encourages that; but the Gleichweits may offer some opposition and try to reshape the sound to more of an "ooo" or "aaa" shape that would be more idiomatic to a Viennese clarinet or to someone trying to get a Viennese sound out of a French clarinet.
