I guess I'd have to question this post's title. It's hard to use the word "Best" in almost any context....especially one as subjective as music.
It's interesting though, how much our tastes are shaped by culture. When I say "I love organ", what I REALLY mean is "I love HAMMOND organ". Five minutes of that "Wersi" sound and I'd have to be put in a padded cell. For me, it ranks right up there with accordions and bagpipes. Of course I realize many, many others feel just the opposite and I certainly respect that. It's not their fault that they didn't have the opportunity to grow up listening to Dr. Lonnie Smith, Groove Holmes, Jack McDuff, Tony Monaco, Joey D., (to name a few) and the huge number of great gospel (Hammond) organists out there..........kidding, kidding, diferent strokes for different folks. But you've got to admit, there are a lot more dedicated 'Clonewheels' out there than CloneWersi's

Sure there where wiser words to use then best... best is a personal opinion at best..
Comming from a world of european home organs i do have a different more broader opinion about organ sounds then the typical B3 addorant, which does not mean i do not appreciate a good B3, i really do... but i also like the Wersi/Bohm and itallian organ type of sounds that fit very well in european folklore and schlager music...
But my point with these video's is that the Tyros 5 is easilly turned into a versatile euro/home organ witouth to much financial costs and performs brilliantly as one....
The title was however a gest, because if i was an organ player, i would go for something like a Nord C2D combined with V-arranger or a Wersi Sonic depending on my background.. This T5 option however shows however that T5 makes a brillant organ when you add a midi keyboard and some pedals. The sounds of organ world, and the expansion sounds make it a very good organ.. the rest of the sounds and the arranger features make it the best choice in that price range for home organ players...
