http://www.eppelsheim.com/tubax_bb.php?lang=en I played the baritone saxophone all through high school, and I really miss the sensual sound and feel of low sax notes.
Looks like it could actually produce notes that are too low a frequency for a human to hear. (How would you tune in that case eh?)
I wonder who that is in the pic. It looks like someone I know.. 
I swiped this from someone’s website.
“Subcontrabass Tubaxes are normally played from a standing position, while the instrument stands on the ground. The lowest note of a Subcontrabass is just above the lower limit of human sound perception, at a proud 24.6 Hz.”
I’d settle for a nice alto.
Marching band!
Yes.

But can you play jigs and reels on it? Is it small enough to work in a session?n
my family has a theory that we call, “the pool model theory.” small people are used in ads to make things look bigger. next spring take a look at the swimming pool flyers. you can see 15 foot pools that luxuriously hold a family of 4. those people are diminuative. the same thing may be happening here. maybe the guy is small and the sax is normal sized.
If I only had a bigger house! (and a few thousand euros)
BTW, yes, jigs and reels sound cool on low saxes. Think ‘Kid on the Mountain’ with bari sax, low Eb whistle, and djembe - we thought it was the coolest sound ever, but we’d had a coupla wobblypops.
BTBTW, contrabass clarinets are easier to find than contra saxes, and do a very satisfying rendition of “people rearranging heavy furniture two houses away”. Also, if you’re out of contra reeds, you can always use a roofing shingle. And fitting that gawdawful big mouthpiece in yer yap is great practise for major oral surgery or salami-eating competitions. You should hear the jokes…
I played contra clarinet in university, and I’m still getting over it.
I’m not sure about the value of producing notes at below-audible frequencies but if push came to shove it would make a hell of a Poitin Still! 
It uses a barri sax mouthpiece and reeds. I’ve played the barri, so I know the reeds are not a big hastle.
It can be fitted with bari or bass mouthpieces, and I’d be inclined to go with bass. Make those sub freqs really rumble. Not to be played near active faultlines, lest one muck up the seismographs!
feh.. That’s just a new model bass sax. Check out this Beasty.
