Soundwise Donny I honestly don't think it's going to really "blow the others away"..., but as with every top keyboard released Ketron is essentially using the "audio styles" as the "very expensive" selling point for this new model. Much like how Yamaha uses the SA voices and other signature voices for the selling points of their arrangers.
Outside of using some audio..., I don't see anything that really sets it above the others. It does sound good though..., but so do the others

Honestly I think Ketron's a bit nuts asking the price they are considering what options are out there.
