Echo Dream 2 is also a staple on my board and is the first delay pedal to give me the same feels as a Deluxe Memory Man.

If the Pitchfactor had the Timefactor's looper built in, I'd be good with just that and a dirt pedal. Didn't care for the H9 one bit, since that's the obvious solution.
I really feel you on this, even though I have considered the h9 for the exclusive effects the design of the factors is way better. It may even be the best design for big box effects in general, not that i have tried that many but i really like how its just like a regular pedal you set with no hidden parameters that isnt like midi and spillover stuff. Waaayy better than the md500 i had for a while

I could easily go with just the pitchfactor and a dirt but like... i dont wanna

I wouldn't put the Avalanche Run in my A or B group, but it is probably my favorite for electric and grand piano sounds. It's what I go to first, when I use the Reface CP.

Can the Polymoon do subtle at all? I want one but all the demos are crazy space noises.

I'm dying to try an echorec-sounding delay. I am such a huge fan of the guitar on floyd at pompeii and I've not heard a sound like it anywhere else.

The one in the DD-500 sounds amazing, not sure how close it is to any other "echorec" since I haven't tried anything else.

My delay for the last 20 years has been my DD-5. I want to try a DD-500 though and a Belle Epoch.

Of course, if you roll back the Dimension & Dynamics pots to zero, that will take away the modulation. Then you'd likely want to set the Multiply pot early (1 or 2). Then it's a matter of adjusting the top-row to taste. If you've got all the top-row pots set to 11:00 with the phasers disengaged & the bottom-row pots set at/near minimum, then you'll have a more subtle delay.

I just love multi-head delays. I'm a sucker for that percussive pingy thing at low delay times. I really never use anything but short and very short delays.

The only true answer is ALL THE DELAYS!

That said, the only one I have that hasn't been mentioned is the Multiplex Echo Machine from 1776 Effects (which for a while was also available pre-built as The Wave by Fox Pedal). Three selectable delays types with two separate delay lines utilized in different ways that emulate the Binson, Space Echo and Echoplex. I built mine with the additional modulation board which will modulate either of the two delay. I love the Space Echo mode which I dial in with a rhythmic gallop and a slight touch of modulation.

I found the BE a very very bland delay, completely uninspiring, and the modulation is utter gash
