sampled drums

We have been using a roland v drum set a lot as there is no room for an acoustic kit at the moment oin my present home studio (not too mention noise issues with the neighbors). the roland drum soounds are ok but we would like to expand our drum sonic palette a bit. We do have Digital Performer and mach five and can use giga and other sample formats. Any recommendations?

Bass and Drum Samples

Understanding this to be an overly broad question,what is the best method to get top quality bass and drum samples?

Is it the sampler route,the soundfont route,the drum machine route,or someting else entirely?

What are the most common hardware devices like keyboards,like kurzweill,emu etc. .What are the various pros and cons in going that route?
