Jim, After 14 years of being with Technics changing to Yamaha was a nightmare. Like you I knew every section and style, I was comfortable. But, there is no future with Technics and technology is moving on. At some point I had to make the move – I sold my KN7 – I missed it so much I bought another one. Sold that one also. A few regrets but the S900 and Tyros2 offers so much that I am happy with the change.
Boy, people hate change.
