people will not think of it as the top keyboard.

But Roland clearly stated IT IS the flagship for BK series. I don't think there will be a "topper" offer and I do believe the BK will stay for a while to be the arranger instruments line from Roland.

Maybe a future refreshed G series will come back, but I don't think is for very soon.

And to answer the question - I believe there absolutely nothing wrong with it. I wonder myself how come there's so little noise about it. Or maybe there is enough, but not here.


First of the 2000 price is not a reason to call it not a totl arranger..



Well, it's really only by comparison with G70 that people will call it a MOTL. It there wasn't that, no real reason why BK9 should be on pair with other TOTL.

Of course, in some areas there are differences, but this could stand the fight very well.

And price it is a reason, again just because of comparison reasons, as Diki said.

Anyway, BK9 is not so close to what E60 was. Not at all - I bought my E60 years ago for only 900 euros, brand new. BK9 is double and some more. But of course the sounds are different too.
