Harmonica chromatique Lyra 16 trous

I feel like im playing an orchestral instrument with this thing, it has a very clean sound, and most of the reeds activate easily which makes for a very comfortable playing experience. However the top 4 holes are much harder to activate than the rest, and dont have the comfortability and pleasant clean tone that the lower reeds have. Which is to be expected but the difference is very noticeable for me compared to my other chromatic harmonica (suzuki scx-64), and that is THE major downside to this instrument to me. I also like the weight and the smoothness of the shell.
Might update in the future if I replace the reedplates or my technique improves :^P

I did notice that the mouthpiece holes need to be smoother. They’re too sharp/harsh for tongue blocking & tongue switching.

I've already owned a Lyra, and this 16-note version perfectly captures the excellent quality I experienced with the Lyra. Just a brief observation regarding the lower valves. To prevent any potential "flaggy" noise from the valves, you must pay close attention when playing the lower notes.
