Not EVERYONE...I just spent all mt $$$ on my KORG PA 4X...

Yes, you are money constrained, but if you spent your last money on an arranger keyboard, you are NOT sensitive to price.

But what happens if tomorrow you lose your job, you have to repair (or change) your car, you have some health care expenses, .......?

Unforeseen events are always behind the corner (willing or not), and it is wise to have some plan B (and savings) to cope with them.

For at least half the price of the Genos, the SX-900 may be the way to go for Yamaha's newest arranger keyboard.

When the Genos came out, I was interested in it immediately, and saw as many videos I could. After a while, I realized that realistically, it was just too expensive for me, so I stopped looking at videos. When the SX900 came out, I thought it might be a pretty good choice. Lately, I started looking at Genos videos again. I like the fact that it's a TOTL keyboard, hence, it has the better keys, and other things the SX900 doesn't. Now that the Genos went up by $500.00, I'm looking at the SX900 again. However, it, too, went up in price. I know that getting the SX900 is going to be a bit of a compromise, though. I'll think about it some more.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Don't bother - I have a SX900 - buy a tyros 5 used if you can much better keyboard. I know you watch the demos of the Genos and is a must have , but it's amazing what you can get out of the older keyboard with a little more work. heck I did this on a prs s900 and still have a problem getting the right sound..

And would the genos really make this song that much better? There is only so many keys and so many sounds....

Beackbum, I am open to what you said, “I have a Sx900, don’t bother buy a Tyros 5, it is a much better keyboard.” Tell about the differences, and why the Tyros 5 is much better.
I like my Sx900, and if there are enough good reasons, I might make the change.
