I don't know from the W1800, but I had the MZ2000 and I like many of its sound better than the PSR2000s. ( Ok I'm ducking now.... sorry but that's what I hear anyway) The MZ had other issues though, so it's now gone. Still, if I were not looking for a module at this point, I'd seriously consider a straight up trade with someone to go back to the MZ from my PSR2000.

I agree as well. I actually bought a PSR1000 and brought it back after 2 days, "besides the harmonizer and a few sounds it's identical to the PSR2000". I had a chance to play the Casio MZ and I also liked the sounds better then the PSR, but it's lack of support for available styles etc.. steered me away, plus it's a Casio. My first band the keyboard player used a Casio until he made enough to buy a more serious KB, and you always had 1 or 2 people come up to you on a gig and say I have one just like it, I thought they were toys for kids to play with(MZ is by no means a childs toy)come to think of it I do remember getting that with the Yamaha's as well. It is a good thing that some companies are not that money hungry to go into the home keyboard toy market so you never have a to run into the situation mentioned. I lost some respect for Roland (Big Fan) when they joined the Casio and Yamaha market segment (creative series I think it's called). I wonder how many companies have actually stayed higher end only. It's funny I was just thinking the so called toy keyboards from Yamaha, Casio, Roland actually sound better than the pro boards did not to long ago. Technology has reached a peak and there will be a day that you just can't improve the sound quality any more than it already is, besides personal preference tweaks.

Does Korg make any so called toy keyboards for the home???????????
