I would choose the King. I was the only tuba player at my high school and though I could have chosen to play the large conn we had, the king was the horn that could actually project loud enough to cover a 40 piece band. The deep tone of the lare bore 20k was too easily covered up by the bass drums. I say go with the smaller, more efficient sousaphones. Dizzy, oxygen starved players carring 40lb instruments cant march very well.
