If you happen to be on the Roland camp, the FP7-F has the PHAIII action, supposedly the same action from the V-Piano. It's well below your budget too, and their SuperNatural piano sound is not bad at all!

If you have the cash, and you like the feel, my advice, go for the MP10!

Regarding MIDI control, they're pretty much similar.

Thanks for the feedback. Do you know if the MP10 is significantly better than the MP6 as a midi controller?

Studiologic controllers have a pretty great action.

Also, Kawai MP-8 and MP-10 have real wooden keys, and amazing feel, however they're above your budget ^^'

I was wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a midi controller with a more realistic action than Yamaha's KX8? I'm looking to play high-end classical pieces (La Campanella, Fantasie Impromptu, Pathetique, etc.) so having a realistic action is really important to me. I don't care at all about speakers or on-board sounds. I'm aiming for something less than $2000, but that's not a hard limit.

Thanks to everybody for whatever recommendations you may have!
