Yeah bore size on trumpets doesn't matter that much because it doesn't have that big of a range. Tubas range from .629 to .846 with bells ranging from 13" to 28" and you really feel that! (This only considers bass and contrabass tubas, even though I do consider baritones and flugelhorns to be tubas)
@@trumpetthoughts Having looked into this a bit more, it seems trumpets suffer from some fluid drag effects that cause the air near the walls of the tube to not move much, increasing the effect of bore size changes. Even .433 to .472 is only a 19% change in area, but the effective airflow could definitely change more than 19%.
I wish i could buy that horn. Thats awesome
When you are ready, reach out to me!

I think it's all relative, based on percentage change.
