Selmer Saxes

I'm wondering about the different qualities of modern Selmer Saxophones. I know that the construction of each of the saxes are different, but for Alto sax, what tend to be the main differences in tone, response, intonation, and control for the Serie II, III, and Reference 54? Anyone know which one gives the brightest sound? Thanks!

    I have a selmer III, and ive played on a selmer II, the II sounded kinda "Rough" to me cant explain too well... The III is a good concert horn and can work well with jazz (Sophmore year got 3rd in the state) The reference is suppose to be the best for jazz. I havent played one yet because they're still recently new though...
