IMHO you can safetly get the Kronos 61

Regarding 73/88, it's better to wait some time, because Korg is going to update the keybeds with a fix which will prevent the note cutoff issue to happen.

I have a Kronos 61, and though I'm sure I don't play it nearly as much as most, I have not experienced any problems with it to date.

I am happy with my K61. No problems. If you were to look at the percentage of units with problems, it would probably be a low number. As with anything, you hear about the bad and not the good.

I own a Kronos 61. I use it for live gigs and at home and never had any problems.
She told me it was either her or the Kronos! I'm going to miss her...

I've had a Kronos 61 for just over a month - so it's not had an enormous amount of use yet but I haven't had any problems with it.

There is a chemical reaction that is triggered when a human, especially a man, wants a new toy. You are merely delaying, the inevitable. :twisted:

Yes, that's why I never tried the Oasys in a store, because I knew I couldn't afford it.
