While better speakers MAY make the internal piano sound of the NP-30 sound better (if not good), nothing addresses how awful that key-bed is.

The only thing piano-like about it is that it has 88 keys! And few of us play to the extremes of an 88 note-er. Might as well just get a plastic 76...

I realize that for just a few hundred dollars, you can't expect too much, but I feel that most of us here probably have FAR better grand piano sounds in our arrangers, so looking at an 88 note CONTROLLER keyboard in that price range offers choices that are far more flexible, AND probably a FAR better action.

JMO... yada yada yada
