I must confess that I almost always use my Roland JV-1080 these days. It's just so warm, deep and luscious sounding, with an almost earthy, vintage feel in the midrange, and the soundstage lets you pick out the position of each instrument with almost holographic precision, even if you're in a relatively mediocre listening environment. I've heard a lot of people singing the praises of the newer XV series modules, and I must confess that the first time I heard one, I was very impressed by the light, breezy air in its top end. However, I found that there was, on deeper listening, a somewhat staid, artificial, almost robotic feel to the midrange, whilst the bass, although vigorous, lacked a certain depth and precision that I found in the 1080, and the soundstage was, to say the least, rather flat along the Z axis. After A/B listening tests in my music room, it became clear to me that the 1080 is going to be my default sound module foHA HA HA HA HA GO FUCK A SHIT UP YOUR ASS
