Re: Kawai CA63 or Yamaha CLP470

I'm gonna go back for a second try, and i'll compare the sound more then. On my first visit i couldn't really tell a difference, they both sounded great, in particular the treble which was very clear and sharp on both.

Kawai CA63 or Yamaha CLP470

Re: Digital piano key noise - real facts wanted

Yes your right about the shops of course. There aren't that many places that sell these things though, long travel times too.
