Hello Don ,

I do not agree with the statement that KN's are being traded in for Genesys .

Genesys is a 69lb keyboard ! 69 lbs .

That's a lot of weight for a keyboard . I was told that GEM was going to design the genesys without speakers to trim the keyboard.

I did play this keyboard at the summer NAMM show in Nashville .

The size of the keyboard was a big turn off for me . The Kn7000 is really slick looking and offers just as much except the CD burner and minimal sampling (GEM).
