When I was shopping for an EEb a couple years ago, I tried the (4p+1r)MW 2141, (4p+1r)Willson 3400, (4comp.)Besson 983, and the (3+1comp.)Yamaha model.

The Willson was BIG and had a BIG price. Excellent horn, just the sound was a bit too dark and was too expensive for a poor college kid like myself.

The MW 2141 had too many intonation problems, played 3 of them, got fed up and lost interest.

The Yamaha played ok, but couldn't get used to the 3+1 setup.

The Besson (which I finally bought) played with a real pretty sound. Very flexible and pitch was good too. It was in my price range so I got it. :)
