You're right, looks like they have edited and removed the PA5X models from the webshop.
The price was listed like this:
88 keys: €4999
76 keys: €4599
61 keys: €4299

( Genos is to find at same site at 'normal price' €5039, now 12% off to €4399 )
I wouldn't get attached to above prices. Above prices mislead end user.
The final prices will be much lower, and that is the good news.
Genos was always overpriced
I am really not so sure about that.
The street prices will be close to the ones published as far as i know...

Hello all!
I think it would be nice if we recall the pa4x prices from the major retailers and make them available here. It would be handy to know in order to make a decision about a pa5x purchase. I only gonna buy pa5x if the price is the same or close (within a couple of hundred dollars/euro)
It's now discontinued, so the prices have been removed from Thomann, Sweetwater etc.

I totally disagree that there is a valid reason for a significant price increase. There is a lot of other pro equipment around us, and there is no price increase trend. I actually noticed that some pro-audio retailers offering great discounts here in New Zealand, as people not that confident in spending money for hobby as much as pre-covid.

I also want to encourage everybody not to buy the new model, until the price is the same or close to Pa4x.

To start:
Pa4x 61
Price in New Zealand: NZ$6499
I imported mine from the US about 4 years ago, and paid US$3200 (brand new)
The retail price in US was significantly higher, but I bought mine from Frank (thank you Frank, you are a superstar!) SO if someone recall the prices here it would be handy!

P.S.
As I want to buy a Musikant version this time (if they make one), I will probably have to import one from Europe, could someone kindly advise on the Pa4x musicant price in Europe and in UK. I belive there was no Musikant version in US, at least there was no one in NZ.

I bought my pa4x at a boxseller more then 4 years ago for €2600, and he paid me €500 for an old G70. And that was the 76 key version, paid an extra €250 for the speakerset

I don’t understand this whole discussion about these prices…. We are only interested in the streetprices…. By the end of the year the 88 key version will sell for around €4k which is a very very good price
