Of the three horns you mentioned I would lean heavily toward the 2155. The Willsons are well built horns but have *way* too much projection to be usefull in anything but the largest large ensembles. I've not spent a lot of time with a kalison but the one I tried out when checking out horns was a bit of a thud for me.
As Sean has already pointed out it would be a good idea to not let price be your primary determining factor. If you aren't completely in love with the horn you choose it will be very difficult to find the motivation to practice on it six months down the road.
Good luck!
