I have loved Yamaha's PSR series of keyboards for years. Most of the models i have owned over the years were the lower priced models with lesser features. In the last 5 years I have seen the 550, then 740, but neither really made me want to get a new one. The PSR1000 really caught my eye (ears really!) and I started saving for it. Then I saw a 2000 and was actually sold. I bought my PSR2000 in February and I can honestly say this is the BEST keyboard I have ever owned at any price. I am still in awe of its power and features and am actively converting styles and still playing it every day....................because I want too!!!
