I have all of these and each machine has its own sound
the best to my ears
1: Korg Volca Sample :—Sampled Kicks sound the best through this machine D/A convertors----!!!
2: Akai MPC-4000 :—loops sound the best through this machine D/A convertors (even at same bit rate as AR
3: Akai MPC-5000 and AR exact tie for mono sample playback ----MPC-5000 stereo loops obviously
sound better
