I own both.
I was thinking about letting go the Kronos but they are diffferent beasts and find them complementary.

Basically Kronos for acoustic and pop (huge sample libraries) and Fantom for electronic and dance.
Both handle virtual synthesis but from their own heritage each.
Another point is Kronos is more complex than Fantom,so require a longer learning curve.
An advantage about Fantom could be the DAW control but we need to wait and see how diverse and effective will it be.
Sampling capability on Kronos is far superior.
Fantom only allows to load samples to the pad section atm.Not for drum kit creation or synthesis source like native PCM.
