I got my D16 secondhanded, and I still have no problems.

BTW, On harmony-central.com's recording forum, there's this guy who can get a D1600, an AW4416 and a Roland VS1880 for the same price. Go ask him where he can get those prices, because IF you're considering the D1600, I sugest for the same amount of money, go AW4416. Problem for me is/was:

Korg D16= $950
Korg D1600=$1800
Yamaha AW4416=$2800. So that choice was pretty easy for me.
If you can get the AW4416 for less than $2000, BUY, BUY!!!!!

It has 2 screens, 4 assignable outputs (to be used as auxes or inserts), motorized faders and a lot of EQ/dynamics per channel...

This other guy recommends a Akai DPS16i for $900. That's a steal too. Also has 4 auxes. But no touchscreen, and 1 screen. FX are so so. Korg's FX are better from what I hear.

Just check your wishes and budget. IF you can stretch it to $1500-1900, go for the AW4416!!! If not, go Korg D16/Akai DPS16i.

Beware of anything being pushed by "a guy who can get" it at close to a 50% discount.

Yikes!
 
no no Vurt...

That's not what I ment.
On H.C. there is this guy who wants advice on which one to choose, as he says that their prices are equal. Korg D1600, Roland VS1880 and Yamaha AW4416. If memory serves me, the Korg D1600 will normally be sold for $1700-1900, so I figured, If someone can get a AW4416 for THAT KIND of money, Hell yeah! BUY BUY!

Been checking back on that thread and never saw the author confirm he found the yammie for the price of the korg. Did you ever hear back about it?
