The Yamaha has a very nice low register. High notes are a challenge to pull into tune and pop out. I have noticed that high notes on a PT-10 are a little cleaner. Of course the new B&S I can't tell you anything about. It all depnds on what you are going to use the horn for really... I bet all three have their thing that they do better than the other two. Nothing beats the low register of the yamaha.

Can someone direct me to information about the Kronos? I haven't seen this tuba, or haven't heard a tuba referred to as Kronos. Thanks a bunch...
