The AK bore offers somewhat more conical bore than other Lorée models, making
it more narrow near the top and slightly wider at the bell. The resulting sound
is focused and dark, with less of an edge to it. This bore is very popular.
The DM bore offers somewhat of a darker "German" sound. The conservatory mechanism
includes all trills, left hand F key, as well as forked F resonance and B flat resonance.
The Arthea compliments the other members of the Selmer Paris clarinet family. The Arthea compliments the Signature and Recital by offering less blowing resistance and a tone quality with great life and expressiveness. Traditional Buffet R-13 players may prefer the Arthea because it will play and sound more familiar to them - but with better intonation than Buffet. The Arthea is priced between the Odyssee and the high-end Recital and Signature models.
