Actually, the piston valved PT-6p is more popular than the rotary valve version with the people who I know play them. I also prefer the PT-6p over the PT-6 for me.
The PT-7p is a very large instrument. IMO I would go with the PT-6p and save the extra dollars left over towards an F tuba purchase. You will need one at soem point in your professional future.
