Will try to stay under $400 and I'm thinking more about the GNS-MS01.

Thanks to all who read/responded.

Amwilburn:
I know you specifically requested *not* the GNSMS01, but it's an *excellent* 2.1 system. I have it setup in the store side by side with the TRSMS05 on the same keyboard, and at one point the I had the Korg PAAS on a PA4x.

The GNSMS01 is miles ahead in clarity (it's even ahead of most small PA's and studio monitors). If you haven't A/B'd them, you really should, although a pair of MR5's (Mackie now on the 4th gen MR524) was the closest I could get under $400. And still not as clear as the <$300 GNSMS01.

A pair of Yamaha HS8's is even closer, but while as clear as the GNS, not as thick on the low end. And costs over $900. And yes, I'd agree, the JBL's would be close enough! (but almost $500 cdn). Same thickness and similar low end, but very close to the GNS's clarity.

If you're basing this on how 'blurry' the previous Tyros speakers are, go to a local dealer who has both and A/B yourself. The Tyros speakers are *significantly* inferior.

Every Korg PA4x/3x customer who's been in asked if it was possible to purchase a GNSMS01 for their Korg. Alas, unless you know how to re-wire the custom 8 pin  connector, it only works on Genos. :/

MadrasGiaguari:
For my Genos, I use a pair of Yamaha Hs-8 powered monitors, with K&M stands.

It's a perfect setup. You don't need subwoofer. Sound is crispy and powerfull.

Directly connected, without mixer.

Very high quality/price ratio.

Ciao

Hi
For your budget ,i would go with Angelo

I use DXr 8's for pleasure listen and Focal Alpha 50's for mixing.
The Dxr's are £900 the pair and maybe a little expensive for  you
I think they are worth it as i have said before. Change over three keyboards and the expensive speakers have paid for themselves and can also be used for small disco parties or live. They are Quality in Monitor mode and powerful in Front of house mode (for live  work) :)
Anything is better than the Yamaha tin pot speakers that go with the Genos. Thy are like a transistor radio and boom box with battery wires. Cheap and nasty and over priced.

I use a pair of Yamaha HS7 monitors now instead of the genos speakers, very good clear sound.
