Hello Jupiter,
I too have owned the KN5000 and currently have the EM2000. I am suprised that you place the 5000 *between* the PSR 740 and the EM2000.
Do you really think the EM is superior to the 5000? I don't have many complaints re the EM but if I was offered my 5000 back in it's place I would be sorely tempted.
Maybe it is me just being nostalgic.
regards
Tony
