Donny,

I had the same sentiments within the 1st 24 hours of owning the T2. I love it even more now after owning it for many months because I really appreciate the sounds, design, and ergonomics more intimately. I have been able to overcome almost every shortcoming on the keyboard. My only gripe is the linkage between the MusicFinder database and Registrations. Yamaha really failed in this area. I'm sure they could fix it with a new OS release if enough people complain.

I agree with you on the stereo issue. That's why I run a Stereo Powered Mixer with two Peavey PR10's and PR15's. I separate the two speakers and marvel at the stereo separation. My setup is light, cheap, and plenty powereful; Behreinger PMX2000, (2) PR10's for small venues, PR15's for large venues. Check it out. My whole setup with two keyboards (Korg Triton Ex 76), sound system, gig bag, stand, etc. fits on the Rock 'n Roller cart.
