Therefore, an XK2 and Pro3T combination would wind up costing more than a
CX3.>>>

I paid $1,300 for my XK-2, but the important point is that I already own the
XK-2 and Pro-3T whereas the CX would require fresh funds. If I were doing it
all over again, however, there's no question that the CX3 would get some very
serious consideration. Korg may still get my money, but having bought a
B-3/122, XB-2 (since sold) and XK-2 (not to mention the Yamaha piano and
other gear) in the past 24 months, my wife has other plans for most of our
income for the foreseeable future!
