I may have spoken too soon. I went back and tried them all again. I need to have the T2 setup next to the G70. The good news is that the KB manager at Alto has promised to do this for me next time I go there.

My opinions of the sounds have not changed very much, except that I dug into the G70 a little deeper and found that I kind of like some of the styles. Not as busy, and with better fill matches than the PA, but maybe a little more spicier ( live sounding ? ) than the PSR1500. What I really did appreciate was the key feel ( superb, for me anyway ) and having 76 keys in front of me. What a difference the extra octave makes to me.

I'm going back soon and will ask Alto to run both through a pair of decent kb amps. My guess is that I will like the T2 sounds better, the styles will probably be fine on either, and I'll appreciate the bigger kb of the G70, as well as haow it sounds playing back standard midi files, making this a closer call, and a tougher choice, than I had hoped for. The G70 does have a harmonizer I think ? That might be the deal maker / breaker too.

The PA1x is still not in the running here, ( still sounds too much like my PA80, at least for me ) though I really do like the sliders....
