My advice to ALL is that if you're pleased with your current keyboard: Don't switch!
In other words: "if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it".

Arranger keyboard sounds, styles, and features will continually evolve & improve, so unless you're just overflushed with cash, stay with the keyboard you're playing as long as it continues to inspire you when playing it.

It's IMPORTANT to remember that simply purchasing the latest keyboard is NOT the SOLUTION to making you a better sounding player. There's absolutely NO SUBSITUTE to the actual practicing/playing required in order to really sound better. Instead of spending money on a new keyboard, a far better decision might be to invest in taking a few lessons from a competent keyboard instructor (preferably one versed in electronic keyboards & arrangers). In fact, a number of top pro performing musicians out there today, on occasion, employ pro 'music coaches' to help them take their music to the next level.
