How do you like or dislike the colors and are they priced right in this day and age? , I'm guessing street price $1999.00 for the X and $999.00 for the live. As far as colors go, I like the original red and blue version X or all black would've been cold.

I like design except, as you can already see in some of the videos, they are complete fingerprint and dust magnets. It literally takes 2 minutes to make them look grubby.
UK pricing seems reasonable, but still, £1500 is a big load of cash no matter what you are getting for it. I think the Live will attract impulse buyers though.

This reminds me of when the 4000 came out. The forum was buzzing. Akai showed out with this one. Brings the fun back to making beats.
