Hmm... it seems like the only one I can find locally is the WS-550
(replacement for WS-540?) and it's only rated for 250lbs.  With
the CS80 weighing in at 220lbs (maybe 210lbs with the lid off), I'm
wondering if this is a wise move, considering how much you have to lean
into the keys to engage aftertouch + velocity...



This is one synth I'd rather not have suffer the three-foot drop from a collapsed keyboard stand.

I bought that Quiklok stand when I was just about to get an 80 and

then didn't :-(.



They certainly aren't bad and there are few if any other kbd stands

out there rated at 300lb., but it has more of a wiggle/wobble than I

like ( due to the height being adjustable ). It's not that bad but

it's a factor I can feel.



p.s. I've been using them with a Kurzweil MIDIBoard
