New keyboard sx720 or ... sx920 ?

[janamdo]

Years back also on the old forum with a yamaha sx600 and now I want to buy a sx720 or sx 920.
Yes, which of the two , the sx720 or sx920 and leaning towards the sx920 as an amateur player ( not going to perform with it )
The real strengths of sx920 are still clear to me?
Who knows more about it ?

Maybe this video will help you. I went for the SX720, because I dont need the extra features of the SX920 and the SX920 is almost 40% more expensive here in Sweden.

Thanks for the video.
Indeed the extra features needed ? and its about 1000 euro price difference

Been working on it for a few days now and am also leaning towards buying the sx720.
Can easily afford it, but don't immediately see the need to go for the sx 920.
It is just like in the video is told: if want to spoil yourself , take the sx 920 , yes....

Will possibly go toward buying SX920 anyway....
I get such a good trade-in back for my old keyboard, practically the purchase value , that means I am only a 250 euro above the new price of the SX 720
That's a good offer to choose the sx 920 though

Yes it's an interesting decision to make. I am buying the 920 based on the bluetooth audio capability. My 920 will be a primary device for playing streamed music (Apple Music, my library etc) and for that reason I will also have a subwoofer (definitely) and possibly even external speakers (I will know this only once I have heard the sound from the internals). I have recently found out that the 720 does not have Bluetooth.

I have now tried them both. More features on the 920, but if you really don't need them, why dish out all that money? The 920 has better speakers, but when I liestened using headphones I found the 720 a little crisper. If you have the opportunity, try them both and decide afterwards.

All the extra voices in the 920 would be important to me. For example, so many more acoustic pianos voices now available on the 920 that used to only be available on the Genos 1.
