I just went on a spending frenzy. I did as Nigel suggested and bought "above average" quality and make it work. It seems to be the best price range for good deals.

I started with a P-155 and was just site-reading again, then decided to play out and got the pa900. then i wanted to record stuff and got the dp-24. next, i thought it'd be nice to have a great synth again in my lifetime, so i got the mox6. found out that the next model up had the card slot, so i traded for the moxf6. now i start thinking about live play and getting the bk-7m. of course, not sure my little pa will be good enough and i have no powered monitors......

moral of story - i'm as sick as you are smile
