Hi John,

I think you're asking some good questions for a young hornist. I would like to 
offer you a bit of advice. Depending upon which school of Music you're going to 
attend, I would contact you future Horn Prof. and ask if has any particular 
kind of horn he/she perfers their students to play on. It's too bad you weren't 
able to attend an IHS Symposium where you could meander into the "loud" room 
and play as many different kinds of horns as your heart desires. You may also 
want to ask yourself "Do I really need a triple"? Especially when a college 
education is so very expensive. Most of the literature you will study will lend 
itself well to a double, a triple would be to put it in car terms like driving 
a Ferreri when a Chevy will do just as well. 

My opinion, that and a couple of bucks will buy me a coffee at Starbucks :)

Good luck in school,

Walt Lewis
