Not very impressed at all
I bought one of these a few weeks ago and at first I was pretty happy with it. I pretty quickly got comfortable with how to access the various voices and features and started practicing my fingering. Up until now I had been using just the built-in speaker then I put headphones on. What a disappointment! I became aware of a distinct noise problem on most of the voice settings, like a poor quality tape recording with rumbles and clicks. I tried various volume settings but couldn't get rid of the noise. When I reported the problem to Thomann they asked me to change some of the key sensitivity settings but the problem persisted. Thomann agreed to replace the unit.
I've just received the replacement and I have the exact same issue with this one. I'm debating with myself whether to look for a refund or just stick it in a cupboard and try to forget about it.
Basically this is an expensive toy. It is of no use to anyone wanting to do anything other than practice their fingering. It certainly couldn't be used for recording purposes.
I'm giving it low marks for sound for obvious reasons. The low mark for quality is because, having received 2 units so far with the same issue, I can only conclude that there is a quality control problem at the manufacturing stage.
