Hi All.
My own personal opinion for what it's worth is that the Technics musical instruments had gone as far as it was possible with their sound technology, sd memory, picture integration etc.etc.etc.The only thing that they could inprove on would be the vocal harmony section and if that is what is wanted then it would be just as well to buy a dedicated unit to add on to it. The sounds produced by the KN7000 and heard by the majority of the general listening untrained musical ear of the public at a gig or performance, are not generally interested anyway as long you entertain them. Several times over the last few years the comment has been made as to how much further can keyboard technology go. I think that technics have seen they have taken that technology almost to it's ultimate and in doing so have killed the future market and more importantly to them: FUTURE PROFITABILITY. I have listened all the new keyboards : Korg Roland Yamaha and can honestly state that none of them are any better than the one I have got : the KN7000 : But as the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Regards to all
