Hard to go wrong with a Miraphone (even though I play a crusty pre-PT B&S 4/4). You can make significant changes to your sound by switching mouthpieces. My main mouthpiece is a Marcinkiewicz H2, nice "core" and a little edge when pushed. I can switch to a pea-shooter, shallow-cup like Yamaha 67C4 or a-little deeper like Bach 22 and get a wonderfully anoying edgyness to the tone.
I think that you can put a lot of time and effort into shopping for a horn and just as much finding the right mouthpiece for "your" particular sound.
I'm working on finding the scratch to try the Laskey mouthpieces.
