Joe and Donny,
I had 2 S950s and eventually went back to my Tyros 4 and bought a 2nd one.
Why? Because EVERY time I play my Tyros 4 on gigs I have gotten outstanding reactions and comments about how wonderful the keyboard sounds. That never happened with the S950. Yes, it is heavier and yes I often wonder "what was I thinking?". But it sure does sound great. By the way, I tried the T5 too and did not care for it any more than my Tyros 4s.

I dont really think the difference in sound quallity is huge in a live situation..
But in my home on my studio monitots the difference is huge, guitars sound so much better, double the number of sa2 sounds, .ensemble voices that can make you sound just wicked, the organ sounds...
But then in a live situations, will people hear that?, i guess they mostly base their opinion on your singalong voice quallity...
