Shame I don't have enough trust to pay someone far far away
big $ and not be sure whether or not I will get what I paid
for.

yeah get it if you can.
I got a second hand S5000 for £500 from a bloke who owns a
record shop who was selling all his gear and going all
laptopy, fool!

The thing had not been used for more than about 10 hours i
reckon, came with ak.sys software and hardware card, and 5
unopened sample cds. nice.

oh yeah, if anyone gets this S6000, get the ak.sys for it,
its the best thing ever! lets you do a usb connection to
your pc and drag n drop files and do virtual front panel,
etc. great fun.

If I were you, and you were planning to buy, I'd get a
S5000, its 3u not 4u, and after a few more hardware bits
have been bought, you will run out of room quickly! the only
difference is S5000 is smaller, has a non removable
screen(no big deal) and doesnt have the 3 user keys (which i
dont need), and no fx and 'only' 8 analogue
outs.....although you can get the fx card and extra outputs,
etc easily. I think the S6000 come with a scsi hdd, but you
can fit an IDE drive also which it doesn't say (?) so open
the S5k, bung in an old 4gig IDE or SCSI disk and wahey.

Not always a good thing. I'm still awaiting a record from
someone. Over a month now.

Yes- I've still not got that record I bought (or a reply)
from the guy we got our refills from...

DAMN! That's very strange considering how quick he was with
that...

oh if anyone does get this, or already has an Akai
S5000/S6000 or Z4/8, perhaps a look at Hollow Sun would
impress you.
