Hi Richard
I can't tell you what to buy, but it looks to me that at least some of the ones on your list will not be a significant step up. That seems like spending a lot of money for very little, or indeed, no, benefit.

I can tell you that I have the older Xcalibur and would not swap it for anything else (except, perhaps, the new Xcalibur). I'm not intimately familiar with the others, but they are all in the same sort of area, aren't they?
