The PSR-s970 is a very amazing keyboard, for the price, completely worth it. Yamaha is a very smart company and would never make a keyboard that would cause another keyboard to lack in sales.

I gig currently with a Tyros 5, but not for it's arranger capabilities, but for it's sound, ease of use, multiple out-puts, Audio-links, keybed, etc.

A psr-s970 could probably do this also, but it's like driving a a top line fully loaded vehicle, compared to a lower line version, they both will get you there, one will be a nicer ride, more features, more compfort, better in every way, but they both will get you there.


Basically you usually get what you pay for
