If you're going to spend a couple hundred bucks, primarily for reverb, I would suggest that you should consider Aether as well. Yes, it costs more than the two Valhalla units combined, and I have never used either VRoom or VVV. But Aether would be my desert island choice (you know - pick one and only one) for an algo reverb. Don't know if there are good seasonal prices, however, but I'd bet if you had it, you'd never suffer from a grass-is-greener sense of deprivation.
