On my 5/4 I use a Marcinkiewicz N4, N3 and sometimes the PT-88 with a short adapter that sets the mouthpiece out about 1/2". This set-up, plus damping the bell, provides for a crisper low register, improved projection and more even response throughout the range. A friend of mine tried some of the same things with his 4/4 Rudy and got good results.
