I disagree with the Besson 967/968, I believe that they have a really huge intonation problem and that their projection is very much a problem too. This is what I have gathered by playing about 5 at ITEC, and 3 at WW and BW. I would definetely not invest in a Besson 967/968. But the Besson Prestige horns are a different story, allthough they have minor intonation problems, as is probably the case with every instrument in the world, they sound great, and feel great. They are a little on the heavy side, but they still project just great. Cost is an issue.
