Bilstein vs Koni with Eibach (95 2.3 LPT) HELP!!

I am finding very conflicting opinions on the relative stiffness of the Koni Sport verses Bilstein in this forum. There are people that swear that Bilsteins are softer and more compliant than the Koni and vice versa.
Does anyone have any first hand, comparative experience between the Koni Sport and Bilstein on the 95 sedan?
My cars is a 2000 that I have upgraded to 2003 anti sway bars and I plan to install Eibach pro kit springs.
My question is: Which dampers will produce the softest ride?
Koni set at their softest setting or the Bilsteins?
According to Bilstein there is no difference in the valving between the HD and the Sport version for the dampers that fit the 95, only the length.
The HD/Sport issue could explain some of the confusion on this board in that for some cars there is a difference in valving between the Bilstein HD and the Sport models.
My goal is to have my car handle well but I don't want it to ride too harshly and I am not planning to autocross.
Any help in sorting this out would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Will
