Gerhard has always been a very good businessman, and I believe the Miraphone folks are quite prolific. Mr. Kurath has built his business up into a full-blown operation with euphonium orders, in particular, stacked to the ceiling.
Though the smaller shops' owners are probably fairly well-off as well, I consider the Gronitz / R. Meinl / Hirsbrunner / Nirschl / Thein / Alexander types of operations to be more fragile, due to their size.
