Starting out with a 6 1/2 al isn't bad, but the idea is to move between trombone and euphonium, right?
I maintain that having the same size rim will give you a consistent feel across instruments and you won't notice the change in depth.

But if you're not in a hurry, I'd save up the money and go with Doug Elliot. He is a genius at getting people the correct fitting mouthpiece. As you are thinking about doubling, I think it would make sense to video record your playing, send it to Doug, and ask for his advice.
at least we agree on something :)
