Hi Matthieu,
It's really interesting that you lose the top notes. It sounds as though the question is "how open do you need to go?".
I'm just trying to work out if there is any way to narrow it down without expense or complications.
I wondered - did you get a chance to try those mps that I sent in the post? I felt as though they were too open for me. If that was right then it might be interesting to try then and see if you are more able to keep the clarion notes.
I didn't ever measure them, but there are threads on here about how to measure a mp. If you found that one was working better on the top notes, even if it is rubbish in other regards, maybe you could measure it to find out what it is?
I think one of them was a Selmer HS** which would be 1.20/18mm. That is quite a lot more open then your debut.
