I know what you mean. I'd like to hear what the Yamaha does, too. 
It's been said a lot lately, but listen to the relatively old ddrum 
module as well. It accomplishes what the Roland seems to on 
completely different principles (multisampling of each voice and 
analog triggering). To my mind, however, in more current terms, the 
DTXtremeIIS might well be the long-awaited happy alternative to the 
exorbitant Roland high end.
