Just became an owner of this instrument. It is brand new and I like just about all the
features with the exception of the " clunk" sound the keys make when struck. Is this a normal
thing? Should there not be some sort of cushion  to soften the impact sound? I have heard only positive comments on LJP about Yamaha products. RSVP.

It's part of having a keyboard, you'll get used to it.  If your volume is up and/or you are wearing headphones, you won't notice it, but if you're playing really really soft, say in a dorm room or a living room late at night, you'll definitely hear that clunk sound.

Try using a great pair of headphones- you will be AMAZED at how nice the keyboard sounds.

I think the 625 is a nice keyboard, I like it, I'd like to have one for living room gigs where I would rather not bring a big gig bag full of cords and stuff.

On the flip side, if you are playing to a large audience from a stage,
you will still probably be the only one hearing the clunk.
