Kawai CE220 Digital Piano
“The CE220 boasts the AWA PROII wooden-key action, one that has been found on many award-winning Kawai instruments. This was the feature most often cited by owners of the CE200 as the reason for their purchase. With the CE220 Kawai has added to this popular feature several other upgrades and new features as well, including Kawai’s Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology with 88-key piano sampling, which produces a more detailed, clear and realistic piano sound. It also comes with a convenient USB to Device capability. This allows you to record a song or practice session to a USB memory stick. The song can then be played on another instrument or loaded into a computer for printing a score or emailing to a friend or teacher.Another significant upgrade is 192-note polyphony, nearly 100 more than it’s predecessor.Another sweet feature the CE220 has is both a Dual Mode, in which two sounds are played at the same time, and a Split mode, in which one sound plays on the left side of the keyboard and another sound plays on the right side. A special 4-Hands Mode creates two identical 44-note pianos on the keyboard – great for piano lessons or for duets.The CE220 has a convenient Balance Slider on the panel that controls the balance in a Dual or Splt Keyboard mode, two headphone jacks, a built-in metronome with a variety of time signatures, 100 built-in rhythms, 29 classic piano songs stored insides with an accompanying music book for learning, as well as a MIDI, Line In, Line Out jacks, and an extra USB jack.Finally, Kawai’s designers gave the CE220 a beautiful premium satin black finish with matching bench, a sliding key cover, and three pedals which offer the same functionality as Kawai’s world-class acoustic grand pianos.”

Solid instrument, no letdowns This piano is a huge step up from my old casio celviano d-piano. The sound is amazing, very close the real thing. When purchasing this piano I was fixated on the wooden key action as being the major reason for my choosing, but boy am i happy with what this instrument can produce. Of course when using the speakers the sound isn’t going to resonate as well or naturally as an acoustic piano, but with a good pair of headphones the sound is rich and convincing. You wont be able to tell the…
Loved it! Worked with iPad! I did my research before purchasing this baby. I read many online reviews and watched a number of videos (paid more attention on how it sounds like compared to other brands) and even went to a local store to hear how other digital pianos (namely Yamaha) sound like.Sound wise, it is indeed the best sounded digital piano under $2000.The touch is good, somewhat stiff though. It can be better if it’s more sensitive to touch…The wooden keys do feel much better than the plastic…
