Better miter saw for dust collection??

This is how my miter saw is setup. Dust collection is 75 to 80 percent effective.I have a DW708 on a HTC stand with wheels with the sawhelper extensions. I have the Rousseau Downdrafter hooked to a Fein Turbo 2(ct22 not out yet). Off the two inch hose is a "Y"  that splits to a smaller size hose with slack which attaches directly to the saw itself. Believe me this system isn't perfect but it does work. Hopefully, When Kapex arrives Life will be much simpler.

The Kapex is variable speed isn't it?... if the Kapex has variable speed in addition to it's other dust collection features you can reduce the speed and feed rate to catch a higher percentage of the dust.

Like most Festool products the Kapex is variable speed: 1400-3400 RPM.
