"This Kurzweil K2000 V3 was owned by Malcolm Cecil

Serial: 21950509265 Overall this synth is pretty dirty and has some scuffs and scratches on the enclosure. The back also has a size-able chunk of the plastic broken off leaving some of the internals exposed. It would benefit from a tune up just because some of the faders are a bit scratchy when moved and it may be wise to think of a solution for the exposed part. When you power the synth on there is a warning that states the battery voltage is low however other than this message and the obvious cosmetic issues, the synth actually functions as intended and sounds great. Comes with the sample disk. Comes in a big gator case. IEC cable is not included.

"One of iconic samplers with powerful DSP filters/processing, VAST technology, last OS 5.01 installed.
Almost fully loaded, except expensive/rare RAM preset memory (what`s not problem with HD).
200 base sounds and 3 banks (~450 sounds) onboard just after Power On.

Installed:

- sampling board (what also mean «leave mode» and vocoder)
- 128 mB memory
- digital AES/EBU in/out, optical in/out.

- piano ROM board
- World/Contemporary ROM board
- orchestra ROM board
- organ Live mode KB-3 board

- and most cool xtra option - FX processing board KDFX what mean max configuration, demand installed OS5.01, and which changes sound in radikal way vs stock effects.
Same board used in Kurzweil KSP-8 effect processor, and which had pricetag $1200 at release days (and is very rare on today as well as K2500RS with KDFX installed).
Nice condition, fan, LCD, encoder and buttons working perfectly.
Original 5 FDDs will be included (OS 5.01 and KDFX firmware what mean FDD is working since these updates can be installed from FDDs only).
Paper manuals for K2500RS and KDFX."
