Does anyone know what kind of tuba these guys are playing?

It looks like the guys in the back is playing the Vienna 6 valve system tuba. Is the front guy playing a 5/4 rudolf Meinl tuba? Or is he on a 6v Vienna tuba too? Thank you

Every time I hear that clip, I chuckle over the sound quality of that front tuba....knowing my sound is at least better than what comes across on the recording. In real life, there is likely no comparison, I fully realize.

What you said...my jaw dropped the first time I ever saw this video with how absolutely stunning Christoph Gigler's sound is.
One that impressed me even more...around 4:30 into the video...L.O.W.R.E.G.I.S.T.E.R

Okay ... the guy in front is Christoph Gigler on his Rudy Meinl 5/4, 5 valve BBb Tuba.
The other guy in the corner is Paul Halwax on a Rudy Meinl 5/4, 6 valve F Tuba.
The third paddle on the left is for the trigger on the 2nd valve slide.
