The Series 9 are generally very fine instruments. I've owned a "U" prefixed one that has very good intonation and a large even sound. The only thing was that the sound was a bit dull, not as sparkling and projecting as modern clarinets.
But I've also tested some Series 9 clarinets that had a "funky" intonation.
Unlike saxophones clarinets can change over time as the wood ages. Especially when they have been played a lot. So you should be more careful in choosing a vintage clarinet. Considering this I believe the older serials like my "U" were original "better" then the those of the seventies.
