Apart from the people who for whatever reason continually mischaracterize and exaggerate parts of my post, I appreciate the much more intelligent and reasonable posts here. For the record, for minimal use of the term "sterile," I clearly proceeded it with "a tiny bit." I guess that is too complex for some people to infer properly. "Sterile" doesn't necessarily connote a negative perception. Some degree of sterility in tone gives the tone a more hi-fi quality and better definition. It doesn't always mean that it's not organic or has no warmth - especially when you proceed it with "a tiny bit." I hope that's not to confusing so we can finally get past the waste of time reiterating it.
I really like what I hear from version III, however, we all don't have access to things, so we learn to rely on what we can access which are videos and audio recordings. If the assumption is that some shoddy recording from a webcam is something that I'd use to draw a conclusion, then that's foolishly presumptuous. There are some very good recordings so far, and there are multitudes of version II already out there.
Based on the intelligent posts in this thread, that feedback about the features, enhancements, and feel have helped me in making a decision to purchase version III when it becomes available at regular price. Though I'm not a professional or anything, I like very much what I hear and the features are great, especially the USB audio and tone matching among other things.
