...do not understand your theory. If the thought would be that the effective length of the instrument is determined by the position of the venturi in the mouthpiece and that given the same over all length a shallower cup means that the venturi is farther back in the bore...... I'm just not buying it- with due apologies. (and I always figured the lips to be the terminus) If there is some other explanation I haven't considered (pretty darned likely) I'd be grateful if you could expound upon it.
