[HAM] XK3 vs. B3

[Boris R]

I'm with Joe here. Maybe I should add that an A100 makes the job even easier because of the lighter cabinet. Roll'O'Kari is clearly a must. Certainly if you have a lot of stairs to the stage it will be tough, but then, 4 reasonably fit men should do it without needing medical aid afterwards.
I am getting 50 this year, and I don't feel it specially annoying to transport the thing. I do use a van or a trailer with some kind of a ramp to get in/out of the vehicle (sometimes only a pair of boards).

I'm looking for input on this.  I'm thinking about buying either a XK3 
with lower manual, pedals, and a vintage 122 OR
a vintage B3 and vintage 122 (probably within a month or so...).  As far 
as I can tell, the price is about the either way.

Also, I don't know where in the Detroit metro area I can try the full 
XK3 setup.

Does anyone own the full XK3 setup?  How does it compare to a B3?  
(Sound, playing, feel, etc.)

My main problem with a B3 is moving it around.  I'm getting too old to 
be lifting the thing.

Thanks.
