Steve, you really know better than to ask if a kaiser tuba would be better in quintet
than one of those new "bee's knees" Kings!
That said to answer your other q's by number:
3) TC had one of those 190 horns around for a while (a WHILE ago)
I sat next to him doing a Commencement Band gig and the tuba sounded HUGE
4) its too big for quintet
5) "reputation"? unfortunately, not enough of them around to have accurate rep
one way or t'other. BE CAREFUL the tendency for folks to armchair-discuss on this BBS
can give the impression of a "reputation" without any personal knowledge of the horn-type

i.m.o.
