Any of you Philly/So Jersey guys know this place? ... here is some info from the 'store' owners write up:
8th Street Music Center was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1940. Originally, the store was located at 8th and Market Streets (hence our name) until we moved to our previous location at 1023 Arch Street in the mid 1970's.

If the ad is legit, it might be a good sign that the PA600 is in distribution in the US ...

PS ... their ad also shows an address of:
7815 Airport Hwy Pennsauken NJ

Tony, I have shopped there for the last forty years. They are legit.

Chas ... thnx for that info ... as I said, at least it looks like the board is getting some distribution ... I will still wait a while for Frank at Audio Works to get his shipment ... closer proximity, ability to test drive before purchase, etc. ... plus, he's a good guy and S-Z family member ...

... just checked e-bay ... the board is SOLD ... be interesting to see if they list another ...

My Korg rep just sent me an email that only 1 PA600 was shipped to my store this week and will arrive on Monday. He said only a very small number of units came in this first shipment and the allocation was very small. More are due to arrive in 2 to 3 weeks. At least I'll have one up and running in the store to show and demo.

Can't wait to hear your review, George ...
since they are shipping to the WEST coast, hopefully they are also shipping to the BEST coast ...
