Thanks guys for the input. I played this piano last monday. It truly is reminiscent of the T3 in many ways - and it's the only other keyboard with SA2 voicing...nice.

The piano voice is the best that Yamaha has to offer in its digital line...very pleasing to the ear.

The speaker system is amazing - tri-amped, w/16 speakers total. My dealer/manager friend says Yamaha is raising prices on July 1. Not sure if that's across the board or just in the CVP line.

One bummer - unlike the T3, one cannot add voices, so it's a closed system, destined for dino-land in a few years. On the other hand, how much more realistic can the voices become?

Anyway, I'm inches away from signing on the dotted line on this beauty. Selling my s910 for a down payment. (sorry, already spoken for).

If anyone has any comments to talk me out of this major purchase, speak now.
