Ben,
If I had a Mirafone 186 to play on at the present, you could not pay me to switch to a 2145. Presence? If you need more presence in your sound, I have two suggestions - 1) Have your instrument thoroughly checked-out by a professional repair tech, tell him you want it in 100% playing condition - 2) practice more, working on tone and projection. The 186 should be sufficient for any situation you'll encounter. If you want to get a more Alexander-like sound out of it, try a Mike Finn MF-3 mouthpiece in it. That combination should give you as much power in your sound as any other 4/4 tuba.
