What I'm anxious to learn about the KN7000 is how it has improved on the 6500 in the following departments: overall sound quality, styles, and ease of editing. Those are my major concerns concerning use of arranger keyboards.

Hello Grandpa Doug,
Here in England our boot = your trunk and your hood = our bonnet so it would probably be 'take a peek under the bonnet'.

I am sure that in your day this would have earned you a slap in the face from a startled lady My old gran would never leave the house without her bonnet or some other suitable headwear. She would oft lament the slipping of such standards in the modern world, to the extent that she would attack any young lady who flaunted an uncovered head, with a hat pin.

AH, but tomorrow (13th)should see the mystery solved and the wonders of seven double o zero revealed.

Like Larry I'm not interested in the gimmicks e.g. storing and displaying digital photographic data from camera etc but in quality of sounds and styles and overall ease of use starting with a comprehensive and easy to follow manual showing all the secrets which previous manuals have signally failed to do.

Hope I can sleep tonight - getting too exited..... : D

I'm about to have an early night, got a 350 mile round trip tomorrow to see this mysterious machine. I hope it's worth it.Come to think about it.....if you reverse the number it reads 0007..... could be a real killer, one more 0 than Bond !
I'll probably be tempted,after all you only live twice!
Have a safe journey guys, may see you there.

Derek

When I decided to merge some Elvis songs from my old kn1500 with some from my kn6000, the result was laughable. While the kn6k songs sounded great to me, the kn1500 songs were flat and tinny sounding in comparison. The sound difference in the two systems were so great it was like comparing a child's toy piano to a baby grand. If the sound reproduction is as improved in the new 7000 as Technics claims, then we are in for a treat! I have heard a guess-u-lation on the pricing for the new keyboard and it seems my wife will have to quit eating for a year or so before I can afford one here in the States. Now, if only they would have a "buy one, get one free" sale I would split the cost with Gunnar Jonny and we'd both be smiling!

Hey Bud, since we live so close together maybe we can get a volume discount somewhere like Swansons. Maybe Doug can give me some lessons on how to talk Carol into giving me her lunch money for the next six months. Doug seems to understand how to treat Ruthie and maybe it will work with Carol.

Alec,

Are you talking about my Mac having problems with the zipper? Thanks to you you talked me through the problem of zipping and unzipping. Mac can now zip and unzipper anything that comes along. As for me, I never had a zipper problem. Well maybe once when something got pinched in the zipping of the zipper. Believe me, sometimes a guy only needs one lesson to be more careful.
