What are you listening to?
Dave, that's quite an excellent look at the demo situation. That's why I hate Guitar Center. Hate it. Two stores in my area, same thing. I can never go in there for five minutes without being blasted away by some idiot pounding out loud hacks within ten feet of my ears. It is absolute cacophony, a futile way to compare audio experiences. If I can find a synth with a decent sound playback system at GC, I consider it a good day. So I go there only to get an idea of feature sets, work process, etc., but not to demo sounds. It has to happen in my home studio with the door closed and my HR824s pumping. So my purchase of an XS will probably be based on a few minutes hands-on in GC to make sure of the display and feature set, then buy one online and trust again that I made the right choice.
