They´ve got nothing in common. It´s like comparing a Mini Moog with a, say, Vox Continental. A totally different sound generation, completely different

I cannot see how it would do any harm. I am not suggesting that you try *running* the CS80 on, say, half mains volts - just turn her on and bring the volts up

Which brings me to question is the SS30 strings nicer than CS-80 strings? I use Strings 2 preset on my CS-50 all the time and it beats for example my old ARP
