I am busy today, but recorded a very quick sample of Kronos 2 Berlin grand short/long notes vs Nord's Lady 2 sample for our own reference. https://clyp.it/x53lgv2i I should have recorded midi and pushed it to both instruments for apples to apples comparison.

I have replaced a motherboard on the original Kronos 73 with the Intel 510 from Ebay without any issues. No bios update was required.
