Drums-The old question revisted

I have searched and searched. I have many years of midi tracks of drums I created and also some downloaded. I don't need to create drum tracks, I just need to play them back via midi/and or creaate them using my midi controller. I have SD2 in S8P. I would really like some better multisamlpes, some percussion, etc. I downloaded the demo of Addictive drums. But they do not sound a whole lot better to me than what I have already. IMHO. Stock SD2 kits plus NS7lite kit and SL kits. Is that it? Would eZ drummer give me better sounds? Not programability, but sound
Hope I desribed that correctly.
Thanks

    Oh man. Dude, do a forum search. There are literally hundreds of threads which describe drum choices for the Sonar user. Best of luck!

    To Nick P. I said I did search, It didn't help. So Superior Drums 2. or Steven Slate drums can be mapped and will play my SMF drum tracks? As I said, Addictive drum samples (demo anyway) didn'ty sound any better than SD2 samples to me anyway. I'll check out the others suggested.
    Thanks

    Haven't they hinted that Sonar 9 will have improved drum sounds?  Maybe, wait this one out?

    Yes I would wait a bit too but I believe that NI Battery 3 is top drawer in sounds. I like it and its sounds best. Nicely tweakable too.

    Best
