An apple and an orange.

Buy both, they are probably both very nice.

No, no, no...

It's obvious that the Siegfried is better, because it has a NAME -- the 1293 is a numbered horn... everyone knows that tubas with names are better (Thor, Baer, Firebird, etc.)

The 1293 HAS to be better, because it has pistons and is pitched in C. :|
