Subject:V5 and CX3 (I'm still stuck on this)

Dear list,

I know this is old news, but I ask again: CX3 vs V5? I am seriously
confused because the V5 sounds CONSIDERABLY better than the CX3 the way I have the V5
set up now (with a H&K Roto plus Pod reverb). Yet the wise list members
here seem to be happy with the CX3--at least happier than I am. I'm wondering
if I've given up on knob-tweaking the CX3/Speakeasy combo too soon. Plus the
V5 rig is a pain in the ass to set up, is a pain in the ass to use, and is of
course more midi-buggy. If I could find a "fix" for the thinness of sound in
the CX3, I'd switch back to the CX3 in a flash.

One specific question: Is there a reverb unit that mates well with the CX3
and gives it some body?
