Additionally, neither is really better than the other. Bell material is a preference type of thing; one isn't better than the other. The link below is what the Shires site has on bell material differences. That said, I don't find the description super helpful by itself and I haven't done a back and forth comparison of the same horn but just different bells before. I'd just try out both options to discern how you like each and make a decision like that if you can.
