Both the 740 and 2000 are great keyboards, however, the 2000 was a big step up from the 740. If the 2100 does what Yamaha says it will, it will be significantly better than the 2000. I've read a lot about the Tyros, and looked at all the specifications of the machine. It's probably a big step up from the 2000, but I'm not sure it's worth the extra $2000.

If you're a performer and playing the nite club and private party circuit, the 2000 is tough to beat. When the 2100 becomes available, I'm reasonably confident that it too will be a great keyboard for performing artists.

Good Luck,

Gary
