The Motif 6 vs. Kurzweil K2500S w/KDFX

Hello group, I am back. The money I need to get my workstations is finally here but I am at a minor fork in the road. I could either go with the Yamaha Motif 6 (61 key version) or the Kurzweil K2500 (Sampling option would be nice, but not required). They both are insane workstations and you both know their stats. Which would you choose and why ? What do you think I should choose ? I do Techno, electronic, drum and bass, and other odd stuffs. What would be the draw backs of both synthns.
I have AIM so if you see

Skeletor Nuts

online, give me a hollar on this.

well how bout this ?

Since the Motif looks like a beefed up version of the CS6X, why not get a used CS6X + a K2500R (sampling and KDFX optional) and go work with that ?

I cant really help you woth the Yamaha but I do own a K2500.

The ONLY faults I can tell you are that the buttons on the older versions tend to lose their click (from the micro switch going bad)
and the old version keyboard also has lose of sensativity on a key or two after a long use.....

What I can tell you is that IMHO it is a unbeatable keyboard.
The KDFX is the BEST internal effects your going to get. As good as many hardware effects.
It is such a powerfull beast that even after about 5 years of owning one, I still have yet to know all about it.

It is a truly total workstation.
