the olny real problem with pa50 is it's complicated and quite unfriendly OS (i didn't say bad OS...)
but the sounds are really good. triton sounds.
now depends on what you want. i sold my pa50 because i didnt like how the navigation process was, but if you're looking for good sounds... maybe only S900 with it's SA voices would beat it. psr2000... sorry, but no way.

Remember the PA50 is still a current model so changing to the PSR2000 is a bad deal.
No Operating System is complicated, they are just different. It's like following a different route to get to the same place. All brands have different OS's and if you have become used to one OS all others appear complicated. All that is required is a little patience to learn the new OS and you will be rewarded. The PA50 is a great board.

The PA50 sounds and feels wonderful, but the ONLY storage option is a FLOPPY DISK. No USB, no internal Hard disk. Nada
If you rely on SMF's or lots of custom program setups ... this is not for you !

You might want to look for a second hand PSR-3000 which offers USB to device, and mega voices.

I'd stay clear of the PSR-2000...sounds are fine, but the disk drive is old technology now.
