The fantom s is older but the xa is a downgrade from the x and cheaper. The fantom s was the top of the line roland board before the x came out. The quality sucks on the xa the keys are very cheap the triggers are too and it seems like they downgraged the patch quality. Even though I never played the s i would go with the s b/c the age doesnt matter its the quality look on the bright side the s is not that old anyway
