You might want to consider using a synthetic reed or a Rico Plasticover, which is a regular reed with a thin layer of plastic over it, if you've only just started. That way you can at least rule a bad reed out of the equation. I've only recently (after 6 months of playing with only synthetics) begun experimenting with cane reeds again. Now I can at least tell which reeds are good and which are not so good.
I still like the sound of the Legere Signature Series 2.5 (tenor) the best. It's quite dark and doesn't have much of a buzz like so many other reeds do.
Reeds are very much a matter of personal preference, but I'd suggest trying out a synthetic if you can. They might seem expensive at first, but think about this: I bought my Legere reed for 25 euros half a year ago, and have played it almost exclusively, perhaps 95% of my total playing time, and it still shows no sign of wearing out. How many cane reeds would I have gone through in that time? Probably more than a box of ten, which is roughly the same price as the Legere.
