Kawai CA-501 R

Kawai CA-501 R digital piano

It uses Kawai's latest Grand Feel Compact keyboard action, which draws on 90 years of acoustic piano craftsmanship to deliver an exceptionally lifelike experience. All 88 black and white keys are made entirely from long pieces of solid wood, with the white keys having an Ivory Touch surface that absorbs finger sweat to provide unmatched control. The Grand Feel Compact keyboard mechanism also features weighted hammers, counterweights in the bass range and a pressure point simulation. In addition, the triple sensor system ensures optimal repetition and control

The CA-501 contains samples of the famous Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert piano, present in many concert halls around the world, often preferred by professional pianists

It delivers sounds in an extremely detailed and pure way thanks to Kawai's Harmonic Imaging XL technology. Thanks to the expanded sample memory, with Harmonic Imaging XL technology the support of individual notes is expanded by 120%

With a total amplification of 100W spread across 4 speakers, with low frequencies reproduced through the lower speakers and mid and upper frequencies through the front speakers, the Kawai CA501 delivers full, rich sounds in high resolution

It features integrated Bluetooth MIDI and audio technologies that allow the instrument to communicate with supported smart devices. You can also connect to the Kawai PianoRemote app, which allows you to adjust the instrument's settings or sounds through an easy-to-use interface

The CA501's Spatial Headphone Sound (SHS) technology enhances the depth and realism of the instrument sound when listening to music on headphones. In addition, the CA501 allows users to select a variety of headphone types (Open, Semi-Open, Closed, In-Ear, Canal, etc.) for an optimized listening experience

Flexible USB connectivity - in addition to wireless functionality, the CA501 is also equipped with USB ports that allow the instrument to be connected directly to a computer for MIDI use or to load and save data to USB memory devices
