Re: Thoughts on large bore horns...

gdong,
the backing up is not caused by the bore. That is really the only point. A trumpet is complex and if one is not willing to dig pretty deep, it is best to just believe that the designers know more than you do!

There are some pretty large bore horns being used as lead instruments and some pretty small bore horns being used symphonically. Indy car tires do not make a Geo go faster.
