I have a Kurzweil Mk 10 that sounds great through good headphones but has a very harsh unnatural sound with the built-in speakers. I would play it a lot more if it sounded more like the headphone sound. I don't need megawatts of power, it would just be for home use but I would like a much more smooth musical sound. I know the keyboard has the capability because of the sound through headphones. Laugh More Yamaha G7 - Roland FP7 - Roland FP80

I know you only want to spend $200, but when I had the Roland KC-100, I used two of them - one for the right channel and one for the left. I've since switched to a Yamaha StagePas 500 PA system to play my piano through, and found someone who wanted to buy the two Rolands from me. I sold them for $100/ea. Try looking on Craigs List for used Roland KC series speakers. You might find a deal. Live Music Is Best
