I saw both a G70 and a PSR1500 at the same store last week. It's only my opinion, and my tastes in sound and styles, but I will say that if these were my only two choices, I would pick the 1500 even if the G70 cost less than the 1500 does.

That probably doesn't help anyone else in the least bit, since I like what I like and the next person maybe likes something totally different. I just got the sense that what I was hearing from the G70's styles and panel voices was a little flat, while the 1500 had a crisp and musical sound to it. It's hard for me to imagine that I'd like the lower end E50 much better than the G70, but I guess anything is possible.
