"However with the more powerfull dsp on the Montage, and the new D/A parts, they should sound even better on the Montage..."
That's exactly what Dom Sigalas (Yamaha Product Demonstrator) told me, Bachus. He said he compared both, because he has a Motif XF, and the Montage is definitely better.
On other forums, every person who now has a Montage says the sound is amazing! It's the first keyboard that blows away every skeptic, once they try it in person. Even the mighty Tyros 5 failed to convince everyone. This says a lot about its sound quality.
Users say that in person, it sounds better than on demos. I know you've heard it in person recently. Wouldn't you agree?
e evryone is wondering what the new D/A circuitry does... In the end i wouldnt be surprised if that cirquitry just adds a tiny little bit of distortion making the sound less clean and giving it more warm characteristics..
But then who cares what it does, if it sounds better to our ears i guess it does something good..
