Components and Keyboard Action<\/h2>\n<p>Kawai CA78. 88-key keyboard with real wooden keys, ebony\/ivory-touch surfaces, and graded counterweights.<\/p>\n<p>Grand Feel II action with triple sensor and let-off simulation that closely replicates the feel of an acoustic grand piano, offering progressive dynamic response and fast repetition.<br \/>\nThis is superior to many mid-range digital pianos that use plastic keys or simpler mechanisms.<\/p>\n<h3>Kawai CA78. Sound Engine and Samples<\/h3>\n<p>SK-EX Rendering sound engine with multi-channel sampling of all 88 keys of the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand, along with complex resonance modeling (strings, pedals, cabinet).<\/p>\n<p>Supports Harmonic Imaging XL for additional sounds.<br \/>\nThis delivers a richer and more dynamic piano reproduction compared to simple stereo sampling found in most digital pianos within its class.<\/p>\n<h3>Audio Processing<\/h3>\n<p>Amplification and audio processing system developed in collaboration with Onkyo: 6 speakers and 100 W total output power, dual 1-bit DAC, and advanced filtering.<\/p>\n<p>Amplification focused on clarity and power without distortion, even at high volumes.<br \/>\nThis translates into better fidelity and sound presence in home environments or small venues compared to pianos with less powerful amplification systems.<\/p>\n<h3>Modern Design and Controls<\/h3>\n<p>First Kawai piano series featuring a 5-inch LCD touchscreen for navigating sounds and parameters.<\/p>\n<p>Bluetooth MIDI and audio, USB\/MIDI connectivity, playback and recording to\/from USB.<br \/>\nThis expands functionality for education, composition, DAW integration, and music apps.<\/p>\n<h3>Additional Sounds and Features<\/h3>\n<p>Solid variety of additional voices (organ, strings, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>Dual\/Split\/4Hands modes and adjustable reverb\/brightness effects.<\/p>\n<p>Ability to play built-in lesson songs and pieces.<br \/>\nPerforms well as a primary instrument for advanced study and broad repertoire.<\/p>\n<h3>Dimensions and Build<\/h3>\n<p>Full console-style cabinet:<br \/>\n145.5 cm width<br \/>\n92.5 cm height<br \/>\n45.5 cm depth<br \/>\nApprox. 75 kg weight<\/p>\n<h3>Practical Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>The Kawai CA78 is a premium digital piano with a very high-level touch and response, suitable for serious use, advanced practice, and demanding home performance. The combination of wooden-key action, SK-EX Rendering engine, and Onkyo sound system places it above many mid-range digital pianos and makes it comparable to similarly positioned models from other Japanese brands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Pre-owned piano in perfect condition.
