I know just how you feel.
If someone stole my Technics KN7000, I would feel exactly the same although midi no longer works on mine and I use modules a lot.
If the KN7000 was still being made, I would be willing to buy a new one in it's original form, even though a have a Genos which I am happy with.
Some boards just can't be replaced despite all the modern technology.
