Do you think that the following Arrangers have been competitively priced by their manufactures? (Try to ignore the urge to expect something for nothing and concentrate on the real world)

Prices are for basic models with no extras or variations. (Key numbers for reference only)

Tyros 4 (61 Keys) €3789

PA3x (76 Keys) €3399

Audya (76 Keys) €3990

Pegasus Wing (76 Keys) €2590

Just curious

Seems to me that in europe the PA3X is the best aranger for the buck... Great sound, most features, lowest price of the real contenders.

Why is the Pegasus wing on that list as it is a wattered down Abacus and in that way not really the Wersi TOTL arranger?

Hi Bachus

The Abacus comes from the Organ Range, it could however be used as an arranger.

The Pegasus Wing was designed for the Arranger market and so is currently the TOTL. (Although Musikmesse is next week)

If your including the 61 key Tyros you should realy include Audya 5 in your list. Its not a lesser model to the 76 key version...just has 61 keys instead.

The T4 is not available with 76 keys so the 61 is the top.

The others are 76 keys and so are the TOTL.

The 61 key versions of the Audya & PA3x are variations of the 76 only.

I disagree. The 61 key pa3x is every bit the TOTL as its bulky, awkward big brother. It's just smarter, and smaller.
