The tuba has a wider bore than a saxhorn. Tubas are designed to produce lower pitches and require a larger air column, resulting in a broader bore. In contrast, saxhorns, while also brass instruments, have a more moderate bore size suited for their specific tonal range. The difference in bore size significantly influences their sound production and playing techniques.
The modern family of brass instruments can be broken into valved brass instruments (trumpet, horn, euphonium, tuba) and slide brass instruments (trombone). Brass instruments could also be broken up into Cylindrical bore (constant diameter tubing like the trumpet and trombone) and Conical bore (increasing diameter tubing like the horn, euphonium, and tuba).
The euphonium is also known as the tenor tuba, baryton(Ger.), basse à pistons(Fr.), and sometimes mistakenly referred to as a baritone horn or just a baritone. The baritone horn, however, is a cylindrical bore instrument with a brighter tone (closer to trombone timbre) than a euphonium. The bore of the baritone is often much smaller than that of the euphonium. The euphonium is a conical bore (gets larger is we reach the end) instrument with a warmer and darker tone than a baritone.
It's not about what is the best trigger trombone, it's all about preference. It's like asking what the best car is. I would suggest a Bach, a Conn,a Getzen, a Yamaha, a King, or whatever your preference is. I'm guessing, you're talking about a .547 bore horn, which is the most common bore. Two of the most common trigger horns are the Bach 42bo and the Conn 88h for that bore.
There is the French Horn and a Bb Horn.
A flugelhorn is most similar to a trumpet, while a mellophone is closer to a French horn. Both of them are conical, meaning that the pipe size is increasing the entire length of the instrument. This is different from a trumpet, which stays the same width before flaring out as the bell. Both of them have piston valves, which are about the same as trumpet valves. They also use the same fingering combinations. This is different from a French horn, which has the sideways-looking rotary valves. A flugelhorn mouthpiece is similar to a trumpet mouthpiece. It has a rounded cup and a wider bore. Pretty much anybody who can play trumpet can play the flugelhorn. It's used in a lot of symphonic pieces as well as jazz songs. A mellophone mouthpiece is far more similar to a French horn mouthpiece. It has a narrow, cone-shaped mouthpiece with a skinny bore. A mellophone is usually used as a marching French horn because it requires an embouchure very, very similar to the French horn. Mellophones rarely appear in jazz songs and pretty much never appear in symphonic compositions.

The alpine horn can also be called alphorn. It consists of a natural wooden horn of conical bore and has a wooden cup-shaped mouthpiece. It is used by mountain dwellers in Switzerland and elsewhere.

descended from the natural, the instrument is often informally and incorrectly known as the French Horn.but since 1971 the International Horn Society has recommended the use of the word horn to avoid confusion; as the commonly played instrument is not, in fact, the "French horn", but rather the wider bore "German horn".Answers.comHowever, in the English speaking world "French horn" is still the most commonly used name for the instrument.
