I too was at TMEA today and spent some time at the John Packer booth. I was fairly impressed. Of all the horns I played today, Adams, John Packer, Tuba Exchange, Miraphone, Besson, Tempest, and Jupiter were the ones I liked the most (euphonium and tuba wise). Adams had to be my favorite of all these horns.
