 Warmer/darker tone vs. clarity/ better projection- your preference?

Hi all,

I have a chance to choose between R13 Prestige and Festival A clarinets.

I feel that R13P has warmer tone/timbre than Festival, but the Festival has sound that is more open, it is less resistant and have more "depth".
The Festival seems to be easier to play/control, comparing to the R13P. Wide intervals legato seem to be easier to play on Festival.
The R13P seems a little "stuffy" and more resistant when I play it right after playing the Festival, but does seem to have warmer and possibly darker sound.

What would you prefer? I mainly play the A clarinet in orchestra.

Thanks.
