If you want to spend around 5 K on a big and flexible horn, it is hard to beat the Mirafone 1290 if you find one used. Play it first and make sure it has good intonation, I tried one once that didn't but the one that I bought was fine. A big helleberg style moutipiece seems to work best on it. The slides ARE too high, but that is nothing a couple of adjustable pushrods couldn't fix.
