    Just wondering if there is any Keyboard Hobbyists/ Pianist's with piano focused Portables here that have struggled with a similar upgrade

    I got my DGX205 for €430 a while back and was wondering what makes the 505 so special to warrant a €750 Price tag. From what i can see it seems be an 88 key version of the 205 (76 Keys) and from reading specs it seems to have 3x Live Voices whereas the 205 has none, and also has the added support of 'Smart Media' media cards (by the way does it Support SD or the antiquated MMC), are these subtle differences worth the extra €320 or is there something much more to this Digital Piano/Keyboard Hybrid that doesnt show on paper

    Also would one expect the same sound reproduction from the lesser models ie. 205/305 or would it be noticably better to match its hefty price tag

    I have read that the 505 has "88 lightly weighted Piano Box stlye keys", but since that doesnt mean its Piano Hammer Graded does that mean it would feel the exact same as my DGX205 even though mine is marketed as "76 Piano sized keys" ?

    Thanks
