I hope you don't mind listening to a half-assed hobbyist's tale of Whoa!
My 10m is my friend, but my friend was frustratingly inflexible, real stuffy on the low notes and only played the high notes when she felt like it. One day I stumbled into a ligature discussion and, probably like most people, figured that the subtle differences wouldn't mean much to me.
Don't ask me why, but one day I reached into the fridge, took the fat little rubber band off the broccoli, and used it to secure the reed to the Brilhart.
Holy Expletive! The high notes sang and the low notes roared. Seventy-five percent of my problems went away and the rest was so what do you want anyway? The horn blew better and sounded better.
