You may want to check out this video to see why all the hype of True Bypass is dying down more and more everyday.
YouTube - Visual Sound: Myth Buster #1: True Bypass ?

I think it's great to have at least one strong buffered bypass circuit in the chain (a Visual Sound pedal preferably). The VS V2 series of pedals feature a buffer that restores lost signal and tone due to long chords and bad buffers on pedals in the chain. pretty amazing stuff, also they really do sound as good as True Bypass pedals.
Yeh, that's a great video. The myth is damaging to a lot of rigs, cause especially with a large board, you gotta have something buffered in there, or you're gonna lose something. I think it's important to start your chain with a buffer as well, that's made a huge difference for me
