The KN7000's innovative design may be subject to artistic taste, but I feel its quality craftsmanship, solid contruction, and 'attention to detail' surpass any arranger KB out there. It's also important to note that electronics (and cars) manufactered 'in Japan' continue to hold the lead worldwide for both quality (worksmanship) & reliability.
