Well I might never come to the point that I will play in a major orchestra, but that is not the point. I enjoy playing the tuba and if I want to go out and spend some money to buy some good horns (even though I don't NEED them) it's my business. It's the same concept as buying a porsche, it CAN go 320 miles an hour, but 99.9% of the people who get them will never get up there. Furthermore, I doubt that the tuba manufacturers would like their sales if suddenly only pro tubists were buying horns. I like the choices I have in horns today, and I would bet that amateur purchases funded a great amount of the new horn options and design.
