I knew by the way this thread was going that someone was bound to mention the woes of a few S900 customers...glad it was you, Tony...you are so eloquent.

Still, as Zuki, and many others have pointed out on other threads, the S900 sounds super right out of the box...fortunately for me and ALL the other Canadian owners, it was the first box...


It is surprising that with an instrument of the PA-800's price and obvious build quality that they couldn't get the most important part right....the sound.

I imagine there are owners who like to tweak, but I still stand by my opinion that that MOST home owners do not want to have to fiddle with their new instrument to get the optimum sound.

Pity the stores in my area won't stock Korg arrangers anymore...they weren't big sellers compared to Roland, Yamaha and Casio, but a friend of mine is thinking about getting a PA-800 whilst on a trip to Toronto, so I may finally get to try one out for myself...that should be interesting.
