Of course, that modern style selection would actually have to exist before you could know this at all, Ian.
It's another chicken and egg thing. UNTIL the styles DO become 'cool', it doesn't SOUND cool. If it don't sound cool, no-one looking for a cool keyboard is
going to look twice at it, speakers or not.

I don't believe that speakers make the slightest bit of difference. But what the unit sounds like DOES. It's
all very well saying that IF it had cool styles, it still wouldn't sell, but with all due respect, until it does,
you are guessing, and IMO, incorrectly...

The DJX sold well because it SOUNDED cool, and for no other reason.

One of these days, someone in the arranger industry is going to try this again. And make a FORTUNE

Or not... and eventually go broke (none of us getting any younger )
