These are my absolute favorite reeds. Though I haven't been playing for too long, I've tried quite a few different reeds, trying to find the best for marching band, jazz band, region band, etc. and I find these to be EXTREMELY versatile. They've got the perfect volume for marching band without being bright. In the concert scene, they've got a full tone which blends beautifully with French horns, though you've got to find a nice ligature (I use a Rovner dark), and when it comes to jazz or rock or anything where you just feel like jammin' out, these reeds can really let loose. Overall, I love these reeds, though; it does take some time getting used to. Expect to spend quite a bit of time adjusting yourself to get what you want from these reeds.
I've been playing Rico reeds for many years now, and once I got my hands on these Vandoren V16 reeds, I've never gone back. They play so beautifully. I noticed great improvement with my tone and overall playing. If you really know what you're doing, you would pick up a pack of these reads!
These are high quality reeds. They project well and last a long time. Out of a box of 10, you will find at least six or seven very good reeds that will respond the way you need them to. I play a Yanagisawa A9930 alto sax with the stock mouthpiece, and these reeds give me everything I need. I don't plan on changing anytime soon.
These are very durable and quality reeds. I have used these in marching,jazz and concert band(size 3.5 and with different MP's). I would recommend these over Blue Box Vandorens(sorry for those who like Blue Box better). beginners and proffesionals could get good sound out of these reeds really. Longest life-span i've gotten out of these reeds is 1 1/2-2 weeks. Quality product!
I play alto saxophone for jazz band in my high school and my director suggested these reeds for me. I bought some, and when I tried them I could hear the difference in the sound. They are truly amazing reeds and I don't think I will switch to anything else anytime soon.
