difference between Yamaha AX-500 and AX-530

[_mana]

Hello, could anybody tell me what is the main difference between Yamaha AX-500 and AX-530?
They both looks the same, the weight is almost the same and technical data look the same too....

There is even AX-630, which is almost the same, but there is added Yamaha YST slot.
Thanx in advance.

The difference between AX-530 and AX-500?
(AX-530)-(AX-500)=-30
I made an algebra mistake in my first post.

I really don't know. Many people express strong opinions when they don't know. I try to avoid doing that!
