Well, as the saying goes there's no use arguing about taste. I am, and I'm sure everyone else on this BBS is, very glad to hear that you love your St. Petersburg. Generally speaking, the experience of most players with these horns differs substantially from yours. While it is reasonable to suggest trying one (I suppose), to suggest waiting to try it rather than immediately obtain a known, well respected horn borders on malpractice (if you're a professional) and at least reflects ignorance of the sound reasons for caution concerning these horns and their dealer in the US.
