Hi,
in it's day, KN7000 was my favourite up till that time. Luved all 15 or so ( lost count) that I had up till that period, but the KN7 was outstanding.
Currently my Korg PA800.
If they were still making Technics, it would probably be a toss up.
best wishes
Rikki

I feel fortunate in having had the best for my needs, except the Wersi perhaps. The KN7000 is a great board, and I still have it. The PA-800 was a fine instrument also, but I had to choose between it and the G-70. The G-70 and KN7000 are both my favorites in a different way.

Well, that would be a miracle, but most likely only wishful thinking ....
or??

I loved all my Technics kboards, but KN3000 & KN5000 are the no.1's i.m.h.o.
and that's why I never bought a KN6 or 7k, did not find any big reason to
change as long as KN5 did what I wanted it to do.

Now it's Ketron SD1 and Roland G-70 who compete, and when it comes to just
sit down (or stand) play "as it is", Ketron are the winner.
Anyway.... keep the new kboards coming, who knows, someday " the ultimate
arranger kboard for my ears and way of use will be born.
Maybe a new Techtron or a Kethnics would knock out the rest??

Happy Playing, whatever kboard!
