Let´s contain that topic to a place where we can be sure it goes on relativly unnoticed that Korg still sells it´s old/refurbished/repaired crap over and over again until it finds a customer who does not complain.
Do you have proof to back this up, you should also say that its in your opinion that its crap, because I think MOST of us are happy with it.
To a point I agree with Saxifraga.
The amount of people experiencing problems is now very small, but almost if not totally without exception, the people that have reported problems in the past few months have had their boards returned or replaced 3 or 4 times and sometimes problems still not fixed. Which points to Korg sending out either old stock as replacements, or refurbished stock that still have the problem.
A few of us had boards direct from Korg that had the note cutoff problem in recent months. Most of these were supposed to be new.
Someone in the past couple of weeks bought a Korg refurbished one that had the note cutoff problem.
Again the number of people this is happening to is EXTREMELY small but to those people, it does appear that they are in fact getting old, refurbished, repaired crap over and over again
Personally I love the action of the RH3 and do enjoy playing piano on it a lot. I prefer the action to that of the Nord and the Motif
My previous comment in my post above this one, had I not had my first Kronos faulty, my second faulty, repaired and still faulty, then the couple of notes that rattle slightly (and yes I agree most people who hear it would say I'm being very very picky) on my X, I'd just put down to settling in and they may well stop at some point.
But we base our opinions on our own experiences, hence if we've had no problems, the Kronos is the best machine out there and we wish those that constantly moan would shut up, if we had one problem and it was fixed, crap happens, can happen to any product, but if we've had numerous problems and found it hard to get them fixed, then it obviously mares our overall enjoyment of the product.
And sadly if someone asks me my opinion on getting an original Kronos (not the X), due to there still being a few bad boards out there, I simply cannot recommend them getting one unless they want to risk the possibility of having to go through what a VERY SMALL amount of people have gone through in the past few months (often being without their Kronos more than they're with it in the first couple of months of ownership)
When you look at Saxifragas Kronos experience and see how his keys now look on his Kronos,

is it any wonder he comes across so pissed with Korg?
