Coming back from K.H's site, I'd just say,
it's really worth to go there and listen to the demos :
not so many so far for sure, but no doubt, the quality is here,
and at a price which makes this lib one of the greatest bargains of the year :
the full library costs no more than GPO (that I own and like) but really the overall sound, the details, articulations and (maybe programming) seem to go way further.
The only downside for non Giga owners is of course the only format available for now.
I still do not own any K. Hunter libraries, but a lot of people said a many positive things about the solo strings lib, so I trust that on the orchestral side the man really knows what he does.
As for myself, there's no reason for hesitation, i'll order right away !

For its price the demos of that library sound really awesome! Drat, I just planned to keep my wallet closed... The introduction price will expire after the 7th of October. That's a couple of more nights to think about it...

A lot of the tutti passagework sounds convincing but there's something about the whole stereo image that doesn't sit right IMO. There sounds like some phasing problems. The price is excellent and it does sound much much better than GPO, its closest rival.

Usb1.1 is 12Mbpsthe better audio interfaces these days seem to be firewire which i hear is faster than usb as well.
Firewirewire is 400 Mbps
USB2.0 is 480 Mbps
Don't know what happened with the Firewire2 which was being talked about since 3-5 years ago...

For those interested, Kirk posted a comparison of his new libraries vs. his older Concert Series.
