I did a simple Google search for top arranger keyboards and this is what turned up!! ...
Why is the Tyros 5 $1900.00 more then the KORG Pa4x?

Because enough ignorant people will buy them?
A lot of people don't realize you don't have to pay the advertised prices..
I would trade my PA4X for two T5s. Then I'd sell them both and buy another 4X!

Advertised prices or not there is a $1900.00 difference for what?

Because the Tyros 5 is the more advanced keyboard. I also agree that it is silly to pay full advertised price. Whatever arranger works for you is the correct one, but always research and shop for the best price.

I had a Tyros 4...got a PA 4X. My Tyros 4 was not more advanced than my PA4X...more like the other way around.

I believe it's all marketing, whatever price the market will bear contributes to setting the price. I don't know of anyone who pays the advertised price, but not everyone knows Frank @ AudioWorksCt either.

marketing? I can understand, but and almost $2000.00 price difference has to be substantiated in any event,.....let's not get off track and get to to the decisive answer of what constituted that major difference in price between the two and lets also throw in the Ketron Sd7/9 too price wise....

PS: is the new GENOs going to be the first arranger to top $6000.00 next also are we headed back to wooden home organ prices soon!!

Hi Marcus could you please elaborate a bit more advancements between them?

Buy at Franks and get the very BEST prices. The Tyros 5 is a superior keyboard and when the new one comes along it will make Korg the trailer. Yamaha gives better service than Korg and that
is worth a whole lot more. Lloyd

Llyd what makes it superior in your opinion?..
Besides myself,..I know many players who would not agree with you for many reasons....
