sorry , to me a pro keyboard should NEVER have 30-watt speakers,
Lee, my friend, my Yamaha CP-300 Stage Piano has speakers...wouldn't you say that it is a pro instrument?
The Roland RD700 Stage Piano does not have speakers.
Would the Korg PA-588 be considered "pro"?
Some companies like to put them in, some don't...I don't think it makes one instrument "pro" and one not.
I like the convenience of speakers, and wouldn't buy a keyboard without them...at least not willingly.

We all have our preferences.
