well one of the important aspects of the vst is their accessibility and design. i personally think soundfonts are a better choice if you have adequate ram. Some vst's even come pre-configured to work with different groups (jazz quartet, brass ensemble) so I think the answer here is trial and error. As long as you can propperly navigate and have enough documentation on the vst (a list of instruments) I think pretty much any vst would work. It depends a lot on the particular parameters they use ETC
