Holy Cr*p! No disrespect intended, but just reading the above page, if I could offer a simile, you guys are like fine wine connoisseurs discussing whether or not you can get the hints of 'wet dog on a sunny autumnal afternoon' in a particular year of chardonnay! Me, I just wanna cold beer to get drunk!
My reasoning for buying a kemper was that it just sounded good, and to my ears it does, so I'm happy! Good luck with the quest, I hope you attain what you're looking for!
