As for the Podiums 802's yes still use them all the time....and they were $200 a pair ..not $300..

BTW: I have more experience in the musical instrument business than you do..so I can rely on what I know ..rather than what you think you know..

And I can hear you loud and clear...
PS: you spell check so we can get a better understanding of what you are trying to say..


I would bet Ian would take a Tyros 4 over the S910 all things being equal. Who wouldn't?


BTW Experience and knowledge can indeed be mutually exclusive. Someone with your age and tenure should know that. Especially when it involves ever changing technology where experience becomes quickly outdated and knowledge is king. If yo have ever interviewed anyone for a position you would run into the the dilemma of hiring knowledge vs experience...

Obama has little experience and a lot of knowledge. Some believe he is doing a great job with that knowledge .Others believe he is woefully inexperienced and it shows. He was voted into power based solely on knowledge though. No one cared if he had any executive or leadership experience.

In any case it seems to me the loudest protesters to the Yamaha Brand are those who would never consider owning one and take those to task who actually prefer Yamaha and consider it the best possible solution for their needs. Constant complaining about what Yamaha doesn't have or how terrible Yamaha voices are, or the slick "CD quality" yet not "CD quality" but not "raw" live sound....Yet Yamaha dealers will get $5000 for a 61 key Tyros that will never see another 15 keys or sound "live" It is my "experience" People who choose Yamaha over the Korg don't WANT "live" They prefer the "smoother compressed" sound of the Yamaha.

I believe that is because that is what THEY are used to hearing when they listen to prerecorded music themselves and want their audience to hear the same.

"CD like" is often associated with Yamaha Arrangers by those who buy them and for that very reason. The buyers re not mixing engineers. They are music consumers. Yamaha sounds like what they buy out of the box.

One doesn't need 60 years in the music retail business to understand that simple fact. Yet so many cannot grasp the "why"....and despise Yamaha for ignoring their opinions which are contrary to those who are and will always be Yamaha Arranger customers

Note taken on "spell check" Just getting used to a new Android phone...LOL
