The BE 765 is not necessarily the best buy in 4 valve non comp euphs.

In fact it has only 2 aspects talking to its advantage:

a: the 3+1 valve arrangement, which I like very much.

b: the large bore receiver, which almost is a must in serious euphs.

However the intonation in the 765 is speaking strongly against it.

The Weril has 4 top valves combined with a large bore receiver. It outplays the BE 765 on any aspect.

And it even might be cheaper.
