Pro Soprano Saxophone Buyer's Guide

I'm in the market for a professional soprano saxophone and I was wondering where I should start looking for one. I prefer Yamaha over Selmer because I like a more warm sound (plus Selmers are out of my price range). What models are worth looking into (not just with Yamaha saxophones)? Is L.A. Sax worth checking out? Also, where, besides on e-bay, could I find some reliable used saxophones?

    I like the 875-z, but you pobably wouldn't be too into that. As far as new horns go, the only other one I really like is the keilwerth SX-90R. If you want to look vintage as well, try a conn 10M or couf superba. LA sax isn't worth your time, and I'd be wary of ebay. There's a good store right on this site for saxes.
