Murf and the Magictones?

Wow....I thought Chuck Leavell played with the Rolling
Stones and Govt Mule. Somebody better tell him HE got
the wrong keyboard.

I don't think it's that the P250 is aimed at the
lounge market; I prefer to think it's their way of
giving you something a LITTLE extra for the high cost
of the instrument; the weight added by the speakers is
definitely under 10 lbs...but I agree: I could do
without them....but if I was to buy my kid a piano to
practice on, I'd consider the P250 in a heart beat.
It sounds wonderful.
