Hi All,

Let me start with "Yes, the KN7000 is a great keyboard" And it is the Rolls Roycs of keyboards maybe. However technology goes on. Technics stops making intruments, the R&D manager is bought by Yamaha, and as result some Technics technology is implemented in Tyros-2. When comparing Tyros-1 with Tyros-2 you notice that difference very clearly. For the rest it maybe is a matter of choice. I love ballad styles and on KN7000 there are some nice ones, like "Animation, Orch. Ballad and such" But in comparison Tyros: approx. 50 ballad styles, all very useful.

I have my Tyros-2 nearly 2 months now. I still need to learn a lot of the intrument. On my website, http://vision-4-life.nl, on the Interests page you can find mp3's of my music. I have some KN7000 music still and some new Tyros-2 music. You can clearly hear the difference. And I even have video on my website now. Watch the link on the "Vision for Life" page.
