Fran Carango Senior Member Registered: 05/26/99 Posts: 9673 Loc: Levittown, Pa, USA	Based on this comparison video.. I find myself preferring mostly the sound of the Yamaha.. Neither of the keyboards entice me, I cannot warm up to them.. At $2,000 I want more.. Moving up to the Tyros5 or PA4x would be a improvement... but I think the over priced Genos out classes all of them.. Listening to other youtube videos... I think if you are thinking PA1000 or the PSR 975... I would consider Deane's SD7.. _________________________ www.francarango.com

I will have my first JS Musical Resources for the PA1000 ready in about 10 days. I am not saying it will do miracles but it will certainly enhance the sonic quality etc. of the Korg PA1000. The more I play and program the more I like it. Its potential is huge. Apart from that it comes down imho whether you are a singer or not, and whether you are a performer or home player. Of these two boards and as a singer ( performing or not) I would definitely go for the PA1000, not knocking the PSR mind you. regards John

Fran Carango Senior Member Registered: 05/26/99 Posts: 9673 Loc: Levittown, Pa, USA	John ,my comments were based only on the comparison video of the sounds.. If I had to choose one of these boards ( to own) it would be the Korg, for many reasons.. (features and key feel primarily). _________________________ www.francarango.com

In the ever ongoing argument which is better we forget that people use the KB in different ways and therefore have different needs.
