Congratulations to all you new T5 owners enjoy it well, ......as for me at this point and MY needs it's good to hear & read all the good features & reviews. I eagerly await most of these improvements to trickle down to the succeeding New S-950 model KB very soon.

All the sounds Just sound better new Piano sounds Scott sound very good you will not be disapointed the Concert Grand cuts thru mix very well with out being to bity and shallow sounding Big Improvement over the T4 .

George & Ron, many thank's for providing those important details regarding the pianos.
I thought I heard what you're refering to while listening to the online demos
but wanted to make sure it wasn't merely my imagination or us hearing the piano voices and/or the keyboard settings tweaked,
or the sound enhanced via an outboard (post) effects/eq processor.

Steve, nice shot of the T4(61) & T5(76) together.
Frankie's 1st class looking showroom color scheme with hardwood floors
I'm sure enhanced your listening environment pleasure too.

George, Ron, & Steve:
I assume you guys auditioned & compared the Tyros 5 and 4 thru each
respective keyboard's 'out of the box' factory default settings, right?

I can hardly wait for my Tyros 5 to finally arrive. Happy Holidays!

WOW, Steve, that was QUICK !!! ... so much for not getting new gear since you are facing retirement, eh ?!?
Actually, I'm glad you took my advice and got it while you are still working ...
BTW ... how is Deb ???

PS: ... now I REALLY can't wait for you to get down here with your boards to jam ...

In photograph what is the "thing" sitting on the left keys of the Tyros 5?

Ian

Ahah! That's what the extra keys are for!

It appears to be some kind of USB device, probably some type of storage device that someone just sat there. If you blow up the photo you'll see the USB plug.

Gary

Gary you hit the nail on the head it's a USB storage device.

Tony do you remember me saying I won't buy a Tyros 5?
Yea I'm sure you also remember me saying depends on which way the wind was blowing on the day I went to demo Well seems it was warm air coming from the south and it got me. I'm real weak when it comes to some stuff.

Now is the time because in about 5 weeks it will be a little different story. Oh Deb yea she's doing fine..................we'll just have to postpone any extended vacations overseas or on cruise ships.

Scott yes out of the box default settings, both were Eq'd flat!

Frank has done a first class job with his showroom at the new location. I'm sure Tony_mads remembers the old location which was no comparison. Frank's does lots with car and home audio, his original location had a small almost cubicle type arrangement adjacent to the garage where electronics for cars were installed for playing keyboards. As you see in the photo he's got a beautiful showroom.

For his electronic automotive side of the business he has this great prop that mimics sitting in a car, there you can sample all different configurations of car audio set ups, it's very cool and unique. FYI that photo was taken with the iPhone 5s, great little camera it is.
