You can get one Pa5x here for 4100 euro
Genos 3900 euro
So similar price range.
This is not about the money only.
I just feel bad about how all started and how all is now.
Anyway let’s hope for the best for everyone and Korg.
There is not much we can do, just wait and hope.

Interesting....
price dropped again here for PA5x-76 to:-
US$4,670
€ 4,370
at today's exchange rate.....
So, if it keeps on dropping, by the time it's fixed and working I'll be able to afford it!!!

Hi Pete, I think our dollar might be up. Hopefully it might reach parody with the US$ again one day, though doubt the consumer will benefit.
Think maybe why the Genos is rather expensive here is a lot are sold via piano retailers ( though might be star to change)and they don’t discount to the same extent as the pro music stores, they’ve got tougher competition.

A friend of mine, an 'old yamaha player', has had Genos for a few years - he bought a Pa5X - he calls me yesterday and says frankly that the Korg plays much better, and even more so on stage speakers.... we can always hide behind a matter of taste, but that he honestly admitted it....
