That is him, but he doesn't speak with a lisp (or like 80's Eddie Murphy) anymore.

that's just how the 808 sounds depending on the decay. and when two notes hit right after each other, such as 16ths, (and when the decay is relatively long), the kick "feedbacks", for lack of a better word.

In decent shape they have been about $2500 for a bit. $3500 seems steep though.
