Bright and Clear Sound – The Kawai CA401 88-Key Digital Piano
The Kawai CA401 retains the highly-regarded Grand Feel Compact wooden-key keyboard action of its predecessor, while incorporating the new SK-EX Competition Grand piano sound, reproduced using Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology. This latest recreation of the flagship Shigeru Kawai piano uses all new sample data, specifically recorded from the players perspective, and is characterized by a bright and clear sound with a distinctive attack. Complementing this stunning new piano sound, the CA401 also utilizes an improved AC power adapter, which helps to ensure a smoother, clearer sound through both speakers and headphones compared to previous generation models.
