I love my Yamaha S-90. Fabulous piano sounds (I think they would meet
your criteria). A piano action that I think would likely meet your
approval. Great Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Clav, and organ (it's got individual
tonewheel/drawbar samples). And everything else in the spectrum (the
Yamaha Motif sound set). 56lbs if memory serves.
