pianota « Super portable keyboard! »
Published on 05/29/14 at 05:51See specifications on the net
What motivated my choice: two headphone outputs, polypohonie 120 notes, 2x9W, sounds, piano, and strings epiano few buttons and functions giving way to a simple aesthetic and class!
Square pedal works very well and holds up well (a good point because it is not always the case).
UTILIZATION
Great touch, a real "heavy", I confirm!
I went through a lot of pianos (Yamaha YDP140, p35, Casio PX150, Kawai CL25, Casio AP500, casio cdp120 130, Roland RP301) and I can tell you that touch appears in the first places. Indeed, I will classify to touch and sound (1 roland korg rp301/2nd sp170/3e casio PX150).
Note that it has a touch fairly quiet; the casio PX150 is too noisy, the yam and korg much less.
Only the scale could have been better made ...
Clear manual flush
General Setup ok
SOUNDS
The sound? Awesome! I even tried store korg p105 with yam and there was no photo: the sound of the yam is rounder and electronics while that of SP170S was purer and sound, nothing. Huge surprise that tonight cheaper of the two that is better!
It was nice to hear compliments on that yamaha and reviews on other brands, including Korg, I advise you not to throw closed on one brand over the other eye. If you have the chance to try and compare, do it! Choosing a piano is part of a very personal feel and impression. Many other things, some will tell you the good and bad but the other does not necessarily rely almost unanimous opinions either.
Eg, despite their reputation, I'm not really fan of yamaha; they make good stuff ok but there are better, cheaper and just as reliable elsewhere.
So its great, the first piano (not the second, which is mono moreover, seems to me there), e piano are also goods and strings. I am not using the rest.
Some owners SP170S or other korg speak sizzling in hp; it is true that a strong game and the volume more than half, we may have some reactions in hp and small vibrations on the walls of the piano (due to poor insulation). But nothing annoying, almost nothing ... And then suddenly, it "feel" when playing the piano, it favors the interpretation.
The expression of the keyboard (touch) is very good; it is firm (not too hard and not too soft), it's not overly plump, I'd love an ivory but hey ... the plastic coating is still. Note that the scale is perhaps not very visible; acute look almost as heavy as serious, there would be an improvement to that side. Otherwise, it's ok.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had a week (that is little but I still wanted to share my impressions as I went through many models, it does not take me very long to see the faults qualities.
(Large) more: aesthetic / usability / sound quality piano / Power HP / practice connection and two headphone outputs / touch firm, heavy and fairly quiet / the value for money
(Small) less: slight graduation / plastic wrapping may be better insulated (high volume and strong game, you hear and feel some vibrations and small hiss but it remains discreet and passenger)
As soon as the lights, we notice on the sound and touch; there we said, at this price point, such expressiveness, bravo korg!
