Well, thanks a lot for your trust, but it always remains a subjective thing. This is my impression from overhearing these demos all in all, but to be sure about the individual quality of Kurzweil sounds and the range of different samples, I would have to try a PC-3 myself and go through the voices and samples, including the available expansion(s) (I've read about KORE64). I haven't ever tried a Kurzweil in a store, so my judgment is really just based on these demos.




Sound is indeed subjective. For example, I've read many people say they just love the Tyros 5. Others instead, say it's garbage. How does one reconcile these opposing opinions?

You absolutely have to try a keyboard for yourself. Everyone has different ears, needs and likes.

I hope you get to try a Kurzweil soon. You'll be glad you did. smile
