OK. I went to my local trusted music Store here in Ottawa. I bought all my studio stuff over there (and it's quite a bit..

).
I asked the guy to set for me the PSR2001 and the Korg PA60 side by side so that I could try them both. Why the PA60? Because the same guy knows me, and he knows i'm a Korg enthusiast (I own a Trynity Rack, a Triton Studio, a T3-EX and a M1...

)
Anyway, he gave me his opinion about both keyboards before I got into them, and ... he thinks the PA-60 sounds better.
So I start playing the Korg first. I was impressed. The sounds were nice, styles were sexy... overall a nice keyboard.
I was so impatient to get into the PSR2001 at that point. Just looking at the two keyboard side by side, I must say I was turned down by the PSR. It looks like a toy, compared to the PA-60. They keyboard also has a weird feeling. while the Korg keys have a nice feeling. Anyway, I started messing around with the keyboard. It took me a while to figure things out, since I never owned a Yamaha Arranger before, but after a while I started.
Well... sound after sound, style after style... I was not that impressed. Maybe I was expecting too much? I don't know, but it does not sound Professional to me. maybe I have a wrong first impression?
I left the place after 2 hours because I was so disappointed at the PSR and I was so attracted to the PA-60.
So I gave myself a break, and an opportunity to discuss these impressions with you guys.
I will go back on Thursday to make the final decision. Also, I will go back to try again the KN2600 and KN2400 (good alternative if one doesn't need SD slot)
I am all eager to hear your feedback about my impressions... please just don't shoot on the pianist
