Sequential Prophet REV2 vs Sony STR-DH190

Pulled the trigger on this Prophet Rev2 desktop. Hooking it up to my Arturia Keylab Mkii 49. Sounds amazing. Only other synth I’ve owned is a Korg Minilogue and I didn’t love it so I sold it, and have just been using Arturia Analog Lab and V Collection 8, but this Rev2 is amazing

It has better and more accurate tone. The bass is quicker. The mid-range takes on more of an accurate presentation. The treble is smoother and more re...

In this price range I would probably get a Prophet Rev2, which is an amazing synth that will keep you busy for years. Vintage synths like the Juno or DX7 are cool, but they have a lot of maintenance issues. I would start with a modern synth (unless you find an amazing deal for one of those).

And in 2020, I do think is rather inexcusable, even at this price point. But the Sony DH-190 still looks the part and looks very slick, especially fro...

TL;DR I want something with responsive knobs and sliders that’s gonna be able to give me nice warm and interesting chord/pad sounds plus fat funky bass-lines and fun melodic runs.

turn off the stereo, the sound bar turns off. Change the volume on the stereo, the sound bar volume changes. Mute the television, and the stereo also mutes. How annoying! Connecting to a TV? - I'm still trying to figure that out

For instance, I read a lot of positive comments about the Prophet Rev2, but then I’ve also seen videos from people who I share similar tastes who say they didn’t like it, and I know from experience that minority opinion of people I’m familiar with is way more valuable than a consensus of strangers. So I don’t think I would trust reviews or scores from a site like the one you’re proposing.

Hooked up the Mani 2, didn’t touch anything per the instruction manual, and it sounds terrible. It’s WAY too loud, and anytime the music swells at all there’s a fraying sound. For reference, I used to play most records around volume 30 with the ART DJ, with the Mani 2 30 was blasting and distorted, had to turn it down to like 17 for the same volume and could still hear fraying.

So this in on paper something that's not clear, which leads me to believe it's a sonic thing, and I get that. So I've tried listening to some videos and such and I'm pretty sure I can rule out the Rev2 as being too similar to some of things, the P-5 and the P-6 having the VCO's that are so critical. But between the P-5 and the P-6 I'm having a bit a trouble really distinguishing things. Can someone help me out here?

. To it's credit, it sounds GREAT on decent headphones. The design of the remote is slightly annoying
