I no longer use them on my MW 182 F tuba. I believe that the monster weights did not improve the sound of the horn and that it sings better without them. I had my horn serviced at Dillons a few months ago and Matt Walters felt that the horn played better without the weights.
I believe that the monster weights do what they claim to do, but they just didn't work for me and my 182...
