while the horn was a little big for me I LOVED the B1 sound

Of all the Schilkes that I had I wish I could get that B1 back, maybe try it with some tighter backbores or a little more gap.

Great comments, which hit home. I recently posted (I think?) my thoughts about playing the 'new' Yamaha Chicago large bore horn. While I loved the sound and ease of playing, playing it with my Schilke 13C4 barely got me through about 2 bars before I had to take a breath. Kinda made me think about just mounting a mpc cup directly to the receiver, with the throat being the size of the receiver.
Which brings me to my point, related to your point... I started thinking that a smaller mpc cup or throat might have made it the perfect horn for me. I don't really know how a backbore is changed without changing the throat diameter, other than changing the taper. I'd appreciate any insight. This whole player/embouchure/mouthpiece/horn system is an intriguing topic!! As I've often said, it's an acoustical system. I just wish I knew the math and physics better!
