The response is very good.
I've found that any time I add valves to an instrument it effects way the horn plays. More valves=more resistance. It seems that everyone wants the 5th valve, so all the makers are putting them on. My large tuba is a 5v Rudy 5/4. I've played on a couple of old 4v versions, and, while I'd be hard pressed to give up the 5th valve, I sure liked the way those old 4v models felt to play. It might simply be because they weigh less.
