Thanks for sharing the pictures. Lots of beautiful craftsmanship to enjoy looking at; I wish I could have been there!
There is a mouthpiece in the Bruno Tilz mouthpiece display that has a blank shape that I have not seen before; if you have any info, I'd appreciate your sharing. (I may just end up sending them an email, but...)
Also, how was the Kronos F prototype? Looks very innovative.
Thanks again,
CJH

hey Chris,
Most of the Tilz mouthpieces in the pictures are Walter Hilgars models and I believe the others are the Daum or Pröpper models.
We found the Kronos to not have enough power in the sound, especially in the lower register. Also, there were some intonation problems that would keep me from buying the horn.
However, the sound was very "pretty/pure" and the valves were very fast. I prefered the JBL B&S F
Cheers
