"Here is the Yamaha DX-5. It is one part of the holy trinity of FM Synthesis: The DX1, DX5 and DX7. If you found this auction then you may know the superb and expensive sounds the DX-1 and DX-5 can produce. If you owned one in 1985 you were either a pro or a novice with tons of money to burn. The DX-5 is basically a DX-1 streamlined a bit. I use the word streamlined lightly because this keyboard is massive. The quality of construction and sound is undeniable. If you turned on Top of the Pops or MTV during the mid 80's you were likely to see a DX-5 being used by bands like the Pet Shop Boys or New Order (bass line to "Bizarre Love Triangle")."
