I, too am a big fan of the TU-31. Incidentally, I bought an original C6 off ebay and the backbore is even bigger than this one, too much more for me. A happy owner somewhere in Canada has it now.
Another larger Helleberg is a Sear-Helleberg, no longer made. It is identical to the original in thickness and rim sharpness, but is much wider and deeper. Has a big dark sound. I no longer have it, but I got it from Mike Sanders(St. Louis Sym.), who had three.
