Okay, Dave started this so I got motivated to compare a couple more mouthpieces. My two videos compare the Wick 4AL with the Warburton Demondrae Thurman Signature mouthpiece and the Wick 4AL with the K&G 3.5D mouthpiece. Just for reference the specs on these three mouthpieces:
Wick 4AL: Diameter: 26.00 mm, Rim Width: 6.72 mm, Bore: 7.38 mm
Warburton: Diameter: 26.16 mm, Rim Width: 7.50 mm, Bore: 7.37 mm
K&G 3.5D: Diameter: 26.40 mm, Rim Width: ??* Bore: ??*
* - K&G says medium wide rim and no information on bore

The cup of the Warburton is larger than the Wick for sure. With my old ears, it is hard to hear clear distinctions in sound with these three pieces. Danny Boy seems to allow me to hear subtle differences better than the other two excerpts. But I will let you judge. I did the best I could to get a good sounding recording.
Edit: I added the K&G 3.5D vs Warburton video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCAoREm5wcI
