Hi Kris -
I recommend both the Malletech and Marimba One 5 octave instruments. They are both superbly crafted instruments. I have never played on a DeMorrow or a Kori, so i won't be able to help out with info regarding those 2 instruments.
I have performed on a Malletech and Marimba One on several occassions and have been very satisfied with the feedback from both instruments. Marimba One is perfect for playing modern repertoire. i love the deep, dark lurking bass sound of a Marimba One. Malletech is also good for playing modern rep and any of the Stevens classical transcriptions {Bach, albums for the young etc.}plus the bass register is very satisfying musically.
As i said earlier, they are both superb instruments, but if your looking to save some money, i would go with the Marimba One. The last time i checked out the prices for both 5 octave instruments, the Marimba One was a couple thousand dollars cheaper than the Malletech. 10,000 as supposed to 15,000 i believe. If you do wind up getting the malletech, you won't be disappointed, trust me.
Best of luck in your studies.
Sincerely, Lon Stetz
