Any advice on the KB. How does it stack up to the TI? Do you have one? Any known problems with them? Any thing will help.

It "stacks up" having the same engine minus a whole lot of cool features. It sounds louder due to having less maximum polyphony, something untrained people perceive as "better" (tip: your ear will always think a loud sound is better than its quiet identical counterpart)

Would you say $600 USD for the KB version is fair?
Thanks for replying.

It seems decent to me. Just be sure it is in perfect working order. I've seen (and see usually) both Virus A desktop and B desktop going for more than 600$ here in Europe. Check the conditions if you can and obviously read a bit on the internet about the features it doesn't have when compared to the C and the TI to see if you're going to miss them or not.
Mostly you lose the additional oscillator modes (grain, formant, wavetable, hypersaw); the alternate filter mode (analog emulation); some of the FX and the ability to have per-part FX instead of global ones; no eq and only the legacy distortion/saturation modes; polyphony "only" up to 24 voices. There's probably something else but these are the main features that come to my mind.

It's Access dude! XD
Everything you can afford is cool.
If you have the money for a TI, go for it! If you only have the money for the B/C, also go for it!
I guarantee you that you won't regret it... I'm very happy with it. It made me save also for a TI2.
