Nice comparisons between the Snow and Ti Snow. I have not heard a Ti in person, but I have checked out some demos of it on YouTube (from KeyboardWizard) and in all honestly, most of it sounds like a Virus C to me, but there are certainly a few of the presets tha were deomstrated where I thought to myself "I don't think I've heard my KC do THAT before."
Arndt's statement about getting the most value out of the B, C series is valid to me, as at some point the law of diminshing returns sets in on every well developed product or service, and the extra money associated with the cost of the latest-greatest model is more spent on marketing/hype than worthwhile functionality.
Sure I'd love to have a Ti for the features it has over the C series; but I also like having a little cash around too. I bought my Virus KC as a new scratch & dent and I have yet to find anything wrong with it. I recently bought a Motif ES Rack for around $700/shipping included on eBAY in perfect condition. Used is not a bad thing if you shop around.
