I agree with Blenn.

I use to own a bunch of hardware units and have sold all but one - an MPX1 - that I use strictly for tracking (monitor).

The VSS3, Non-Lin2, and the R66 (for wilder effects) are "software" reverbs that are superior to the all of the hardware units that I've owned. The UAD Plate 140 is pretty good as well but not quite in the same league as the PoCo and R66 -at least for me.

Prior to these though, plug-in verbs did leave quite a bit to be desired.
