Korg Forums

Hi Everyone, i just purchaed Korg kronos used from Music123 for $ 2166, please tell me if it is a good deal , the keyboard was gently used , comes with 45 days return policy, no warranty.thank you.
i have yamaha XS6, ES6, roland fantom g6, yamaha MOX8, roland vr combo, access virus T1, korg extreme 61.So is it nessessary to have more workstation like korg kronos?

Its a good deal assuming there are no problems.

I paid $2600 delivered. Brand new.

Hope your K is in great shape.

It seems strange to purchase first and to ask if it's a good deal afterwards

Thanks for you opinion, they said the korg is in good condition except the normal use of some keys, that is all they know.I considered to get Roland Jupiter 80, but changed my mind in the last minute.did i make a right decision?

I agree with EXer.

You seem unsure . Even at that good price it is a lot of money.

There's a thread (very long one) about the Jupiter and Kronos.

I need to order before asking you guys because 15% off offer would be expired soon, i still have time to cancel the order because of weekend, they can not ship it immediaety,

You mention some keys do not work properly?

I'd say if you can afford a Jupiter 80 you should get brand new Kronos rather than a faulty one which may drive you nuts. The cost of repair to the keys would probably work out to be the same.

They said nothing wrong with the korg, my music store in houston sell it new for $2399 PLUS 8.25% SALE TAX ( I JUST CALLED THEM).So shoul i cancel the order?

If you don't want to put yourself into trouble NEVER buy used gear without seeing it and without trying it out yourself.

That is a ridiculously low price. What store is that?

Houston parker music

You got a decent used price, from a dealer, which gives you some type of return policy. You're good.

I have no idea why the Houston store would sell that low. I don't know how they stay in business. If they are an authorized dealer and that is a new unit, it would be worth it so that you have a 2 yr Korg warranty.

Are you crazy , no warranty . Why not, the Kronos has only been out for a few mounts so why no warranty .

Do your self a favor , save a little more and get new ,. It will save you a big headache later . Many hear have posted numerous problems with their Kronos .

What are you trying to do with all your gear .
Is it for live or studio or both . Sounds like your ready for a audio interface and a DAW or a analog or digital mixer with a multi track recorder .

Good Luck

I don't know either, but it is really a good deal.i puchased my yamaha XS 6 for $1799 in 2008 when it just came out.

I don't like the no warranty part. Too early in the product life cycle.
