UTILIZATION

Touch is for me what is the best at this price. He beats them soundly Korg, Casio and do not talk, and even Roland (but there is perhaps a personal taste). For cons, I could not compare with Kawai.
For those who do not want to bother changing each time the reverb, sensitivity, etc. ... the grip is perfect.
Manual is very clear.

SOUNDS

The sound is very honest. Spatialization is quite natural.
The power amplification is quite sufficient and quality of speakers is convincing.
Small problem: the amplification saturates very slightly when the volume is too advanced (beyond 85% I would say) playing fortissimo. In short, we must still push it to its limits.
I will not judge sounds other than piano. This is not why I bought this keyboard. I confine myself that are very honest without being transcendent.

OVERALL OPINION

I like the design very plain that we lose a little amount in the range with the arrival of monitors. It's tough, it does not move.

Which is too bad:
* While adjustable metronome, but it is unclear how many beats per second you are. Personally, I do not really care anyway.
* No line out (we must go through the headphone output)
* When it recorded a song with the keyboard, then pressing the play button does not enable midi output ... For once I find very negative point.
Some slow activation of the una corda pedal. It's not very obvious, but a bit awkward if we chain things quickly.

Aside from this, is a product that is still quite the road despite the arrival of many other models. The nature of the game is fairly unique for a keyboard of this price. It is relatively fun playing, and it's really the point.
