Okay, well rumor, i'll admit i was skeptical. So, today i went outside with 3 random music majors, and had them blindly listen to
1. King Silver Sousaphone
2. Blastophone
3. Old 2 valve DEG contrabass

What was played? Concert D pitch was played, order notated; then 2 Getchell 1 etudes were played, order notated.

It was a run away victory for number 3. The blastophone came in last. I think i'm going to continue this too, keeping records of the information and getting back to you as more people hear the comparison. As of now, the blastophone almost recieved laughter when in comparison to the other 2 horns.
