I did not have the opportunity to try the originals prior to my purchase. Although, I ordered a Cryo for my alto (Selmer Reference 54, Theo Wanne Durga 6*) and WOW! It completely opened and evened the horn up through all the registers. How can this be?? So, the next day I bought another Cryo for my tenor (Selmer 114xxx Mark VI, Theo Wanne Durga 10*) Same exact results! I couldn’t begin to tell you how much money I’ve thrown away with gimmicks and snake oil ‘cure all that ails.’… many thousands of dollars… but these ligatures really and truly are what they say they are in every aspect! I especially like the adjustment bars on the sides…. I have mine set with one bar about 1/4″ from the reed and about 5/8″ from the screw. Seems to give the best response, big tone, but still maintaining a very warm nice core.
