New is new and opened is unknown....

There are too many ways to list how you can damage a brand new keyboard and even static electricity can do it. New is new, and opened is unknown. I ONLY plug into a balanced AC supply after learning the hard way that not all AC is the same...and sooner or later unprotected the AC mains is going to damage a chip and make you wonder what happened. I was at a GC once and saw a Furman's lights going into the red on both sides back and forth. Not a good sign if buying a floor model.
Only Korgs I ever had go down were a used WS and a floor model "slightly" used O1w and after paying to have it fixed it cost more than a new one, same with Roland.
Many people if they know they fried their new synth will just take it back for a new one and sometimes you have to test everything to find the damage.
