I too am interested in the AKX10 and have decided to wait until it has gone into the hands of the US keyboard owners for review. I did a comparison of the Kurzweil KP300X to the Medeli AW830 and recommend everyone do the same.

Its the end of august now

I've spoken to Sam Ash, B&H, and Sweetwater - they have no plans to sell the Medeli AKX10 here in the US (sadly). It is available all over Europe now.

Is anyone in the U.S. carrying it? Maybe the company just isn't offering it here.

Hello, forum members

Since August 2 I made a pre-purchase of a Medeli AKX10, and this week I hope they confirm the shipment.

I have been reading and watching videos about this new model, said to be the Medeli A1000 update, but with improvements that make it similar to the Psr sx700 and 900 or close to the Korg pa700 to the pa900. What if it is clear that Medeli is better than the Casio brand, because it maintains the well-known taste of Yamaha

There is also a style converter from Yamaha to Medeli.

When I have the piano I will share more about it.

God bless you

Received the Medeli AKX10 yesterday for Alto Music out of NY.

@Cmhorka desperately need another review (apart from Jeremy See!). Also, how is the warranty/service in USA? I'm in Washington State now and I don't think there are any service centers throughout America for Medeli!!

 

[happyrat1]

I'm in Canada, and bought an ASM Hydrasynth last year. (Medeli owns ASM) ... I hear what you're saying about warranty centers, but usually that sort of thing is handled by the distributors these days.

Even Roland directed me to their distributor once for a hardware upgrade.

So whomever is selling it to you is most likely getting it from the American Distributor. Unless you are buying some cross border grey market gear your warranty should be covered.

I might be ordering one this weekend from zzounds, how has it treated you? Any issues to speak of? Others have said theirs would lock up at times, forcing a reboot. It happened enough to cause a return to the store.

I'm a korg guy, have been since the m1. But $ is tight, and I dont want to wait 4 months for the pa1000 to be in stock, or hand over $2,400 either.

This at its price seems like a no brainer, but if its problematic, I'll look elsewhere.

Question: can you change drums/bass and left hand sound for fills?

*And how was your zzounds experience? I used them to get the x50 and m50 a decade ago, no issues. But the web is littered with negative reviews on them since covid hit.

Thanks for reading

Zzounds has been great in the past for me - similar to Musicians Friend - fast shipping.
