The T3 has been the biggest surprise for me. When i was looking to upgrade recently from the PA1x I was always eyeing up the Audya.....!
I said I would never own a Yamaha again after the PSR8000 but I have eaten my words.
I felt I needed to change from Yamaha back then because with each board they released I didn't see enough of a significant jump to warrant the next upgrade and a lot of other keyboards at the time sounded more professional.
However,everything about the T3 is so much more superior than the PSR8000 whereas I couldn't say the same from owning the i30 to the PA1x I don't think the improvements are as superior as what Yamaha have done to their range.
But if Yamaha are guilty of anything and that is they release too many keyboards in a short space of time and this temps people to think they should change. Maybe if I owned a T2 I wouldn't have upgraded to a T3 say, just like when I saw the PA2xpro I didn't think it was that significantly better than the PA1x so I stopped there with Korg and went back to Yamaha.
So yeah, the Yamaha has certainly surprised me as I wasn't expecting it to be improved so much.
