As Fran & Dave posts are quite big to quote this is a reply to cover both

After just a couple of hours with a keyboard that you both shared you have both attempted to try & come to some solid conclusions as to your opinions on the KN7000 which is fine you are entitled to your own opinion & obviously that is exactly all it is.

I am a little baffled as to some of the statements that you make which only serve to make me believe you don't really know what you were really looking at so does your opinion carry much weight I doubt it.

Some of the criticisms that you make may be correct depending on the players personal choice.

But to say Quote "It has a good solid feel to it, but I don't think it's metal. Feels like hard plastic to me" Unquote is just laughable & sums up the whole statement for me.

I guess that the success or failure of any product comes down to it's popularity.

Let us look at some easy to find FACTS on Synth Zone of threads created over the last 30 days.
