I own the Yamaha YEP-321S horn, which while great, has a small shank receiver. I want to buy a Schlike small shank mouthpiece, but which is best for euphonium? I have heard the 51D, but I want a really full warm tone, so would a 52 size be best for me?

It really depends on the person. 51D is a great euphonium mouthpiece with a full and warm sound for some people. I wouldn't go much bigger in overall volume than a 4AY or a 51D on a YEP321, though, as I believe it's kind of an overmatch for the instrument.

Can't go wrong with a Schilke on a euphonium.
It really depends on how far along your chops are developed as to which mouthpiece you should get, if you go too big too early, IMO you're doing yourself a disservice.
Personally I really like the 52D for euph and the 51D for trombone.
