Hi John, cogratulations.
Unfortunate re your KN7.
I will be interested in your thoughts.
As I have said before, while ever my KN7000 keeps going, I will survive, but I am ever on the lookout for it's replacement and the korg 1000 seems to be my first "go-to" model.
I would normally opt for the PA4X, but I have no facility for external speakers.
