I have only tried the 641 Eb, and found it very difficult to manage a good sound from the low BBb (2 ledger lines plus space below the staff) on down. If I were looking for an Eb tuba as my only instrument, I would certainly hope the 651 is better, and I would not consider the 641. IF I were looking for a special-purpose Eb tuba -- one that would sound similar to a smaller rotary F tuba in "voice", I would perhaps consider the 641 Eb.
