I don't mind if you don't agree with me Fran...believe me, if the K4 was a good as you say, I'd have one.

Unfortunately, although you say there might be no loss of sound 200 feet away, but what was left certainly wasn't worth listening to. Barely any highs left whatsoever in the test we did with one.

It was the same day we tested out the two Bose L1's.

The K4 is a monitor amp, with a short focal point for the speakers, and meant to sound all frequencies at close range, i.e. on a stage as a keyboard monitor. It was not designed as an arranger amp, but more for monitoring Stage Pianos and clonewheel organs, with which it does a great job.

But, if it works for you, that's great...it didn't work well for me at all.

Ian
