Efficiency is the reason I switched to the V Raptor - I have never played another horn that made it so easy for me to do what I need to do. That, in combination with a mouthpiece change, has made a HUGE difference! I recently had a pretty nasty cold, and this was the first time I can remember that I actually didn't lose range and endurance while I was sick. Efficiency is definately the key, though - that's how small people like me can keep up with guys twice my size! I also find that being in good physical shape helps me. If I feel strong all over, then playing isn't so much work.
