I've just heard the KN7000 demos and not impressed one bit. The sounds and styles are very weak. I own a Roland G1000, Ketron SD1, Gem Genesys and Kurzweil K2500. I've never rated Technics for sounds or styles. I still think Technics has never advanced since the KN2000. This is obviously down to personal taste, so if you are thinking of buying one, listen to them and decide for youself.
