Doc,

It depends on what you want to use it for.  You might want to check out Mark
Pulver's comments on all three devices on www.midiwall.com.

I don't know the Kenton very well but the Encore is a great unit for dealing with
multiple MIDI->CV connections since you can set up scaling, polarity, LFOs, etc. for
each CV and Gate out.

The JKJ unit is great for controlling a single synth on a budget.
