Are there any sonic differences between the X5 and X5D besides the additional 2M of ROM samples? Specifically, are the effects different sounding?
I was thinking I'd like to get a X5D, but I haven't heard one yet.

There will be sonic differences, when you reachthe X5's polyphony limit of 32 notes. 
But else it should be quite the same.
