Awesome Digital 🎹 incredible sampling& the action, second to none at this price point! If your a true pianist, this is the one to purchase! This from a former Yamaha die-hard!

This is a nice keyboard with responsive key action. It is well built and has good sound from the onboard speakers. I would purchase again.

This is a great keyboard with very nice sound choices and sound quality. The sound can come from its own speaker and can be connected to outside speakers at the same time, which is a big plus when we use it in a large public area. Also Sam Ash made this order easy and ship promptly. I am very satisfied with my purchase from them.

Above I selected both realistic sound and unrealistic sound. Unrealistic only applies to the rhythms. For a keyboard at this price they are a disappointment. However the rest of the instrument, voice sounds, action, customization, and overall quality are worth every penny. I just sold a Yamaha DGX660 and I loved it for what it was, a "do everything' instrument." My biggest positive impression here is kind of the opposite, how thoroughly thought out the features it does have were. This keyboard is not trying to be "everything" it just trying to be really good at what it is. AND IT ABSOLUTELY SUCCEEDS AT THAT. Sound, action, and keyboard quality are excellent. Built quality is excellent. Everything about the keyboard says just quality. It's up there in the price, but in my opinion nothing from any of the other major manufacturers comes close to this for the same money. (and I did research on everything close to this price range) The speakers alone are good quality but personally I wish they had a little more volume. Just my opinion. (and yes, my hearing is fine.) Hook up a good pair of studio monitors and listen to what you hear; you won't be disappointed.

Great speakers , sounds easy to choose and change. Simple to set up, yet more complex adjustments than I'll ever need. Purchased as a used unit, but it arrived in pristine condition as though never been used.

This is my second DP, first was Casio PX560 which is great but keybed is too noisy when practicing at night and don't want to make noise. The few sounds on this Kawai are very solid and just sound great without making any adjustments. I'm very happy with my purchase and It will most likely last me a very long time since the built quality is great. everything about this piano just feels right, I would only complain about not having more sounds and may adding the new Piano sounds as MP7SE :) I like that this one has built in speakers and they sound great.

My daughter and I are learning piano; and I wanted to get the best possible action and sound in a portable package(so moving wouldn't be so bad and it won't take up too much space.) I took a chance on Sam Ash direct on eBay and found a Kawai ES8 for 1300ish. Maybe the piano is overkill for lessons, but the price made it a great deal as far as sound and action.
