Mo, I may have mislead you..the gray cube is a guitar amp..the keyboard amps are bright silver..I think if you had a Keyboard 60 ..you would have remembered it..12" woofer and a horn..
That being said the Roland 300 may still be dynamite..although I take any of the older Cube Keyboard amps over the Roland KC series..
I still have and will never get rid of the Roland Cube 100 keyboard amps..Nothing has topped them yet..and I have tested them all..Peavey, Fender, Berhinger, Yorkville, Carlsbad, Carvin, Mackie, JBL,Samson, Roland, Yamaha, Galien Kruger,Motion Sound,Holmes,Bose,and a many others , now including Traynor..Still the best to me..

I spent the day with Fran & was treated to a Traynor K4 Demo....very impressive amp for sure, crystal clear sound.....which definitly stood its ground when A/B'd with my Mackie 450 sound wise, using various methods, Vocals, SMF, Mp3's, Live playing, etc, etc .....the K4 has a rugged design, nice grill, and some real nice usuable features ...& we had a great lunch also [This message has been edited by Dnj (edited 12-30-2006).]

I tried one two weeks ago...it was hooked up to a Hammond XK-1.
The rotary effect sounded very good through it and the K4's "tube" effect was nice.
I got the sales guy to hook it up to a PSR-S900.
It sounded pretty good as well...quite loud...but don't expect much stereo separation, especially if you are used to hearing stereo through a pair of powered speakers.
I don't think the speakers are long throw so it won't really project the highs all that far compared to a PA speaker.
Also, it's quite heavy and rather awkward to carry.
Overall?
Very well made, LOUD, fairly compact, heavy, designed more as a keyboard (electric pianos, synths, organs) stage monitor than a substitute for a PA.
Good luck.
Ian
