Nice report about the BK-9. It doesn't deserve the bad image and sales figures. The BK-7m is already quite good soundwise, and the BK-9 essantially has the range of sounds from BK-7m plus SonicCell (which largely corresponds to Fantom X) plus some SuperNatural sounds plus some additional sounds from SRX expansions. It has a lot to offer.
High quallity Roland sounds, also has a great acoustic and epianos.. There is no reason why it should not hold its own on stage...
The only thing people never seemed to understand is the 2 screens, and it has no midipads, just audioloops, and limited expandabillity... But then who needs such a thing when playing in a band... Also no aftertouch, still not needed when playing keys( piano/epiano/organ) in a band..
I dont think there are many other arrangers offering that much for the money you spend. The BK9 lost when people started comparing it to pa3x and tyros as the other 76 keys arrangers
