Hi Mike
Holy Cow! At that kind of weight you could have been packin' a KN7000 with room to spare!!
I just ordered a KKP9. Actually I won it on ebay. Brand new total with shipping $59.98!!
These retail for $200 and most places sell them for about $140 plus tax or shipping.
And guess what? Check out the link below. I talked to Ray at Mattys Music and he said if I was outbid to call them because they had more.

http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/007356.html I was going to get one of those hard cases, but when I saw the Kaces porter on ebay, I knew nobody was going to bid except for me. Maybe later if I want a hard case, I think I'd get one of theirs because I have seen no better deal out there.
I also have the KKP7 that I use for my PSR2000. Nicely built and sturdy. Best case I had seen for the 2000.
Scott Yee has both of these Kaces cases. (echo?). It was at his suggestion I got the one for my PSR and also the Tyros. (I can say it, I got a Tyros wooooooooow!)
Another reason I went with the Kaces case, is the handle is very comfortable in your hand, giving really no stain which I have found can be quite important, especially before the job.
The only thing is the speaker holder and music rack holder won't fit in the KKP9. But, now I see there is some kind of bracket available that that shouldn't be an issue. I have to find out where to get those. Although, I may use the music rack, no way will I get that little speaker set-up to play out with. The only way I would ever consider anything like that is if I really thought I wanted one,and then only if it was the two top speakers only, with no sub-woofer. Otherwise, for me anyway, I can just take one or two of my JBL Eon 10G2's for that. Right now I'm using them as main and monitor. Should be fine unless I start playing in a big place, with a lot of people, where a lot of volume is needed, then I'll will need to check into the 15's.
Best
