Thanks - your answer sounds encouraging! I guess it's all up to the difference between the PHA3 and PHA4. Unfortunately, no RD800 nearby to try out - I'll have to order one and hope that it's at least no worse than my 700NX, and then try to sell the one I don't want to keep.

Finding my 700nx hard to play for "fast stuff", and it doesn't have the bounce feel of my old SX. Would the 800 give me the NX quality with a more spry keybed?

I know you can save default patches to the "quick" positions, but I can't figure out how to save any on board edits. Is it possible to save EQ and effects changes to a patch?

Thanks - I went with NX. Would you consider $1950 shipped a good price for a "gently used" floor model?

I lost a 700-SX a while back - my favorite board to date - and quickly replaced it w/ a 300-GX which I initially liked, but over time, I missed the bouncy playability of my 700. Question now is, do I go for a reasonably priced 700GX, or is the upgrade to NX worth it? I do like the action of the NX, ...
