I visited the Runyon factory today. (I live about 30 minutes from it.) I tried about 12 different mouthpieces for my bari. I ended up with a metal quantum...
After the Runyon factory visit, we went back to my friend, Percy's, house and played on his tenors for awhile. He has about a dozen horns. I played his gold...

Definitely an interesting topic. I am not an expert at embouchures but I will throw out my opinion. I've been playing so long, I can't really tell what I do...
Yeah - for my personal preference metal alto and tenor mouthpiece could stand to be bigger. My jaw hurts after playing them for a while. Rubber mouthpieces...
