Went to the Boston Guitar Center and played both. I don't know what's "wrong" with me, but, while I did find the Stage 3 keyed a bit on the light side (compared to my past Yamaha boards: S90, P80, P90, P121), it was great to play. And I found the Piano 5 to be....a bit mushy. I really think I actually preferred the Stage 3 feel, even when playing the piano sounds. Is that a family uncommon sentiment? But again, as with my first experience with the Stage 3, I just fell in love with the sounds. The presets are so musically inspiring. The Piano 5 doesn't have that breadth of sounds. The Stage 3 is $1,000 more. But it has aftertouch, other controls, and many more types of sounds. You only live once. I'm buying one tomorrow. SO PSYCHED. Thanks for all the help!
