It is looking like we will have more to choose from in this unit from the BK-5 it looks like there will be a much needed improvement to the tone wheel organ segment 76 keys and light weight a must as a former G70 user I am looking forward to this .
one thing i am debating with my self is enternal speakers Bk 5 has them it came in real handy yesterday there is a growing trend i find in asst living homes memory care units growing and I am being asked to play 30 min in memory care and then the 1 hr show in general population after that with no time to set up so I am pre setting my tyros set up and going in the memory care with Bk - 5 this gives me a great advantage being able to provide pretty close show for both and get a better price for my show so if they put speakers and a Mic set up on it it will be great for that and will be able to go in to a small room with just a keyboard and a mic and do what I do you know we are always looking to carry less and sound more.

The BK9 may not have speakers...I don't think it has them...Shame ...because as you mentioned with a mic input and speakers...with 76 keys..could be perfect for small jobs..Senior centers etc..

Yes it would be great for that purpose but I think it will not have them roland is prob using the mold from a prev keyboard to construct this unit so the bk 5 is a great option but no mic input make me carry extra gear for the job that has 2 set ups I am starting to get many of those growing trend here in so cal .

It's tough to get you guys to lug much weight around. A 76 even without speakers will obviously weigh more than an equivalent 61. Were Roland to put in a decent set of speakers, it would probably push the weight up to where you guys would probably complain about that!

Damned if you do, and damned if you don't. Welcome to Roland's world..!

What other 76 has got built in speakers?

Diki! Pause the video at 20 seconds. Could this be the Chord Sequencer you've been asking for.?.?
