I tried a VMI 2301 last weekend. It played very well, and is $2995 at the Brasswind. It is a 4-valve rotary model, and there is a 4 valve piston model available (the VMI 3301) for $3995. I good case will run another $400-500, and a gig bag will go for $250 to $300 (I just got a Reunion Blues cordura gig bag for my Kalison for $250). The Mirafone 186 is a good horn, I played a CC 186 for 10 years, and it has a nice sound but some problems with the scale (of course, so does the Kalison I now use).
