Sound has not been an issue with me, neither, Donny...I think the reason we don't hear an Audya or Korg arranger played the style Telmo plays his Tyros4, is that these arrangers are a bit behind in realism and sound quality, in my opinion, of course.

Mind you, they still sound great, in their own unique way, but for sheer quality and realism, it is hard to beat those Yamaha SA/SA2/Mega voices.

I was quite happy with the S-Series action too, Donny...light, fast, and accurate.

I also must say, I was very impressed with the sound, and styles, of the Technics KN-7000 in the demo that Larry Hawk put up on another thread. Man, it still sounds terrific, even after all these years. That is an arranger that has really held it's value.
