Thinking of getting a digital piano

But what caused the clicking sound?
Ace Hardware sells a kit for working on electronic instruments.
Good time for you to familiarize yourself with your new piano!
Take it apart, get the grease gun out of the garage, go to it.
Or, I guess let warranty take care of it if necessary.
But have the grease gun at the ready.Anyway, huge congratulations on the piano. I'm envious, in a good supportive way.
And, more recordings! That was enjoyable! -

I just went to costco and replaced the keyboard. This one is totally click-less, feels perfect, but the bluetooth doesn't work. Sigh.

What headphones do you Pianoteq peeps use?
You'll have to go to @kluurs for that one. I use some cheapo headphones - a no-name brand. For my needs they're OK. If I want great, room-filling, sound, I'll go to my grand.

I literally just ordered my third pair of Sony MDR7506 professional studio headphones yesterday. They seem to last about 8 or 9 years then the ear piece cushions start disintegrating from all the contact with my scratchy face. I briefly considered looking what else was out there but I’m so used to the weight and feel of these, I’ve been using them since 2005.

Mine are very much that. i think they were pretty high end when i got them in 2005. But they're still a good seller, you can see them stocked at bricks and mortar retailers to this day.
Those are the ones I'm upgrading from. I'm hoping to be able to hear a difference, but we'll see. The Sennheiser 650 will be more comfortable in any case.

Those Sennheisers are pricey!
the software, headphones, and audio interface are costing as much as the piano.
Yeah. How about that?

Rhetorical cost saving measures are worth what any other rhetoric is worth.

Those aren't necessarily my best headphones. I have a pair of Stax electostatic ear-speakers and with a Stax Class A amplifier that sound nice as well. Sadly, I spend the majority of my time listening to music through my iPhone and my bone conduction headphones. I have a pair of inexpensive Sennheisers I use with the bedroom stereo.

I ordered two headphones from Amazon by accident. Actually, I ordered one, then reconsidered, canceled, and ordered another. But the cancelation didn't go through in time, and both were delivered. The first was Sennheiser 560-S, the second was Sennheiser 650. I thought the 650 would be better, but it turns out I like the less expensive 560-S more, and the difference was clear. Hate to take advantage of all these free returns. But I'll get over it.
