Donny, my frame of reference is Ketron. In the limited time I had, I thought that the G-70 sounded better than a Tyros II but was a close second even to my old MS-60. It may grow on me, but right now, my brand of preference is Ketron.
New owners of the distributorship, an SD-1 design that is years old, design problems with the SD-5 and concerns about repair and limited distribution made me re-think this purchase, but I'm pulling big time for the next one.
I have two new Rolands in house, waiting for my third one, and they just don't cut it, in my book.
The jury is out on whether I'll use one (or more) on jobs. We'll see.
(Picky old SOB, ain't I).
