Thanks for your post.
Very interesting, nice playing and video. My own preference would be the brass one but I have the aluminium one ( as everyone !)

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks! Yeah, the brass one is amazing. The copper is a close 2nd.
New video every Monday, I'll try and post them here each week.
Take care! _________________ On the road with Under the Streetlamp

Interesting. I’d like more on the modern mutes, as that’s what I use. _________________ "Nearly as good as I need to be. Not nearly as good as I want to be".

From 5:07 to 5:11 both the tone and mute color of the anodized aluminum match the emotion of the last two notes of the trumpet solo in Mahler 5 Trauermarsch.

Thanks!
Every week a new video, I mix in the modern with the vintage. I've got somewhere around 200 mutes (and always adding), so I'll be making these videos for a long time, and I will be covering as many modern brands as I possibly can. _________________ On the road with Under the Streetlamp

Are there any modern manufacturers who make a harmon-style mute with a detachable funnel?
Not that I am aware.
Although, the Soulo harmon was recently updated to have a small insert that goes in, but it's not very long. It does help with the response in the lower register. That will be revisited in an upcoming video. _________________ On the road with Under the Streetlamp
