If your tires are any wider than 25mm then the damping from the tires is an order of magnitude greater than that from the seapost.
My tires are 700x25 right now but ideally, they'd be at least 32's. It's a Cross Check. Some people swear by carbon for it's comfort, but the Salsa is almost half the price, only a little heavier, and at least more adjustable than the stock Kalloy I have now. I'm leaning towards Salsa.
