Wow I'd forgotten about Redline - are they still going? I have that somewhere but never installed when I switched to 64 bit many years ago - hard to remember now but I think at the time all Redline stuff was 32 bit and the developer had died?????
Audio Damage Eos I still use a lot as well. Always liked the Audio Damage stuff - Dr Device still one of my goto effects

I'll say it again, the one that has me gobsmacked is Zynaptiq's Adaptiverb.
Have to admit, I adore the sound but also like the GUI.
Other favorites: Eventide Blackhole, EW Spaces, Nectar2 Plate, Overtone RVB500 Plate, NI RC24 & 48, PSP PianoVerb2, Valhalla Room and VintageVerb.
Runners-up: IK's CSR Room and Plate, d16 Toraverb, Logic Space Designer, Waves TrueVerb, PSP EasyVerb, Eventide Stereo Room 2016.

I'm perfectly happy with a smaller collection. Three, to be exact.
 
One sweet algorithmic (ValhallaRoom), one vintage emulation (ValhallaPlate, although I'm sure I'd like Vintage if I had it), and one for special effects (Toraverb). 
 
If I were to add more, it would be to that last category. Maybe if I took up ambient or shoegaze as a genre I'd add ValhallaShimmer or Eventide Blackhole. But for now I could easily make do with just VRoom and nothing else. 
 
Of course, now that Fabfilter has a new reverb, that's going to be hanging over my head like an enticing piñata full of unknown treats.

Very true. Some of us collect stuff in life and others actually do something.
As for me, aspiring to achieve the latter. One day, one day.
Did you try Valhalla Übermod, bit?

indeed the dev died, then some time later his widow picked it up again, i have both the eq and the reverb, both tasty plugs, they're all x64 now :-)
i love the fsu stuff from a.d., dr device can be a secret weapon in the right circumstance (ssssh!)

Horses for Courses - I didn't agree with any of the choices except the UAD Plate 140.

It is personal taste and workflow!

For me, and in no particular order (but all worth checking out in my not-so-humble-opinion<G>):
  • Liquidsonics Reverberate - replaces Pristine Space for me
  • Eventide Black Hole - cool for special effects
  • Zynaptiq Adaptiverb - purchased for special effects, but gets used everywhere
  • UAD Plate 140, Lexi 224, Dreamverb, and Ocean Way Studios - each one is stunning in its own way
  • Exponential Audio Nimbus - my new one-size-fits-nearly-everything
  • PSP Springbox - Sometimes you just need a spring
  • CamelSpace - I love this plugin, but I know one day I will no longer be able to use it.
  • Lexicon PCM-90 - the hardware, still my all around favorite on the mix
  • Micmix Masterroom XL-121 - again, sometimes you just need a spring!
I hope I'm not cheating including my two favorite hardware devices...

My reverb collection includes exactly none on that list.  In fact my reverb collection isn't much of a collection at all. I think I have one plug that didn't come with Sonar. I have the focusrite red stuff which I got mainly for the eq. Love that eq. But IIRC it came with a gate and a reverb. I think I've used the gate a handful of times. I don't think I've ever used the reverb on anything.

SPLAT comes with a couple traditional reverb plugs and that convolution thing and between those I can usually find something that works so I haven't felt the need to look elsewhere. 

I really like the demos I've heard of the Waves Abbey Road plates. But not enough to justify the price. I also really like the demos I've heard from actual PCM9x hardware. But again, not nearly enough to justify the price so for now, I'm happy to stick with what was included out of the box.

Those AR plates were less than $50 recently (with coupon) so the future is bright.
