Although I found the sound of the Nova to be okay, I did find the yamaha to be a bit "deeper" in tone, which was more to my taste. The Nova didn't seem to have a strong intonation. The notes were easy to produce in tune, but sustaining them was not easy.
Thanks for your reply. Do you mean that that the Nova required more lung power than the Yamaha for sustained notes, or that it was more difficult to keep the notes in tune the longer you sustained them? (Maybe the instrument is very sensitive to breath pressure?) Did you find the Yamaha to have more reliable or accurate pitch than the Nova?
