Well, I think that Yamaha's sound patches in their
hardware synthesizers
sound much better than any soundfont I've heard. But if you're talking
about a pure synthesizer (one that generates its own sounds, not simply
playing what is basically just a sampled sound) - hard to tell. I still
think the Moog synthesizer sound is the best!
Another thing that hardware synths have over software is the user
interface. You just can't get the kind of flexibility that you have when
you reach out and grab cables and frob knobs.
