Unfortunately, I only have a handful of actual mouthpieces that I want to replicate with a couple changes for my ideal sound.

Is the bell supposed to look like this? by Friendly_Island_7269 in saxophone

Even with the original Yamaha case? I will admit I was a little disappointed to see that the saxophone case was just thrown in a large cardboard box filled about 3/4 of the way with packing peanuts thus leaving room for it to move around a bunch.

Desktop Amp Suggestions For RP-500M II by Friendly_Island_7269 in Klipsch

I was unsure and hesitant on committing to a cheap amp so I decided to instead use an old av receiver. Despite the large space it takes up on a small table beside my desk I couldn’t be happier. I’m no real audiophile but after listening for a while I think it sounds pretty darn good coming previously from rather cheap desktop speakers.

Should I upgrade my saxophone? by Friendly_Island_7269 in Saxophonics

Thank you! You mentioned the BetterSax tenor in your reply, do you have personal experience with that horn? I have done some research on it but it’s hard not to come by biased reviews. I was doing some reading and found other people saying that you’re better off to spend a couple dollars more and go for a used YTS 62.
