Thanks very much.
I remember the American "originals" of the K&M design from my boyhood. All those supported - weight-wise - were Conn 14K's, King's, and Holton's. They seemed quite reliable in that range.
Yes, I can see how a super-weight sousa might be a bit of a top-heavy situation...and perhaps the K&M copy (though I've only seen the picture on the internet) isn't quite as heavy-gauge as the original dicontinued American version (which I recall being rock-steady).
