Are you getting a digital piano, Donny? Are you planning on using it at home as a controller, or just to play some piano pieces?

Lots of choices out there.

how portable is potable? (weight and seize)

And how many keys are required?

Do you want hammer action?



For me, my 88 key Kronos falls in the portable cattegory, dont think your defenition would count a 50 lbs Kronos X 88 as being portable. But the hammer key action and the piano sound(both onboard as custom samples) are near to perfect for me... Only that part warrants the 2400 euros i payed for it on Ebay. And there is so much to love on top of that...

The casio px-5s is only 24 pounds ... But its 88 weighted keys, maybe there is a 76 version of it, but it has remarkable good action and very good piano sounds
