I played the KN7000 - 08/07/02 08:33 AM

Hi there,
I played the KN7000 for about an half an hour and the first thing that 'hit' me was that the speakers and the amplifier are much better than on my KN6500.
Some things I discovered (what can one do in 30 minutes)
The use of styles, sounds and other settings is as it should be: just Technics,just easy.
New feature: instruments can be alphabetical sorted in the sound explorer.
Loading form the SD-card goes pretty fast.
The KN7000 looks nice, sounds nice but is it worth the price compared with my KN6500 which I own for less than a year.
Follow this link for KN7000 demo's in MP3-format: http://www.oostendorp-muziek.nl/kn7000/index.html
The site is in Dutch but the language of music is international.
Greetings from Holland.

Albert.

Hello,
I'm wondering when they will be available in Belgium.
I ordered my kn7000 two months ago.
I already sold my kn6500 with hdsx6.
I had the kn6500 only for 9 months...but I couldn't help myself.
I hope they wait several years to bring out a kn8000 and certainly no kn7500.

Greetings from Belgium,
Alain

What a great headline that is - I played the kn7000 - and something we are all waiting impatiently for. Thanks Albertg for guiding us to the demo. Raaather good..

Agree with you Alaine. May the kn7k be with us for at least five years ...?

Thanks, Albert for letting us know of the site. I went into it. The MP3 download for Demo 1 is well over an hour to download. Forget it! As much as I would like to hear the sounds, I am not waiting around that long.

Hi NSR, you must have had a really bad server connection when you tried. The files are all about a MB so on a typical 56kb connection should take about 5 minutes each to download.

Thanks, Alec -

I am about ready to dump my ISP. I have accused them of putting me on overloaded servers, due to slow downloads. They, of course, deny it, stating it's my phone line, which has been checked out and not the case.
