  4. Yikes...$18,500.00 US

  5. At that price its unobtainium. Although it would look nice w/ a DX1 and CS80;anyone have a rack strong enough?
    Anyone ever hear one of these in person? Just curious to know if it's as expressive as its counterpart.

  6. I just listened to the Yamaha factory demos of this thing - AMAZING sounds. I never heard of it before. Hopefully, someone will buy it and actually make music with it.
