Having been a yamaha fan since 2005 i switched to a pa600 korg for the last year. Sold it last month. Went to the music shop to try the psr s970 and i am still in shock. I wanted to like it..heck i even put telmos eq settings into it and to me i couldnt be more disapponted. It sounds weakish.. the keyfeel after the pa600 now i understand when people say it has a toyish key feel. I spent a solid hour playing it and am close to deciding that it may be the end of the road for me with yamaha. The drums are weak, the flutes and sax sound same as my old old psr s900... can the psr s970 be given more ooomph with better eq settings and voice eq?? Im somehow still willing to give it another go...is it maybe the korgs have better speakers? I dont know...
