A local music store has a horn for sale, a Miraphone. It doesn't have a model number, but has "Premium" engraved on the bell just beneath the logo. It's a BBb, and has the diagonal valve layout of a Marzan or a 189, but it doesn't seem to be a big horn like a 189. It has the narrower bell ring, so it's not too old. I'm just curious about the model, I'm not interested in buying it or anything. Especially not at $5K. The 1st valve slide is towards the outer branch, as is the 2nd valve slide. It has a very nice mid and upper register, the low end is a little squirrelly. Feels stuffy down there.

Anybody know about this model?
