horsepower

Hi Group,

Well I'm getting closer to making the big purchase(KF700 Pro). 4hp is
standard, so of course I figured the 5.5hp option would be that much better,
but it's $210 more PLUS I'd have to step up to the "star-delta" switching,
which costs $260. $470 total to upgrade to 5.5hp.

Here's my question: Will the 5.5hp be all that noticable over the 4hp? Or if
I decide I need/want more than the 4hp, do I go ahead and go with the
7.5hp - since I'd already have to upgrade the swithing. I currently use an
old Rockwell 12"-14" table saw with a 5hp motor, and yes I do occasionally
push it past its power limit, especially ripping thick stock with the
feeder.

Any thoughts/opinions???

thanks, Jason G
