Kawai CA701 Digital Piano, Polished Ebony Overview
The Kawai CA701 is a premium digital piano that is great for players seeking the authentic feel and sound of an acoustic grand without the space requirements. This instrument has made many improvements over previous generations with an extra piano, new DACs and improvements to the LCD display and software. It is all complemented with a more impressive looking cabinet and improved music stand rest.
Full Description
Grand Feel III action
One of the things Kawai takes extremely seriously is their action. This is why the CA701 has Kawai's industry leading Grand Feel III action. Unlike many digital pianos, these instruments make use of long wooden keys. The length of the key allows for an accurate reproduction of a grand piano's key system where the fulcrum of the key is halfway down the key's length.
Unlike most digital pianos where the fulcrum is placed at the end, a complex system of weights is used to emulate the missing extra length.The ivory touch key surface accurately replicates the feel of real ivory. Even the moisture absorbing characteristics of ivory are included, meaning that your fingers are less likely to slip on the surface of the key.
The keybed includes a triple-sensor system, rather than the standard double sensor system. This means an extra sensor is placed in between the sensors that would normally detect the key being pressed down and released completely. This allows for accurate replication of techniques such as fast repetitive notes where the key may not fully rise before being depressed again, the intermediary sensor can detect this.
Extra pianos
The CA701 comes with a new piano to add to the already impressive complement of piano sounds. The SK-EX Competition Grand. This piano was recorded in a natural and peaceful environment with multiple microphone types and placements used to faithfully capture the sound and character of Kawai's latest flagship SK-EX grand piano.
The SK-EX Competition Grand has a bright tonal character with fantastic clarity, the attack is distinctive and thick and the recordings were done from the player's position. This gives you an unparalleled sense of closeness with this instrument that is only surpassed by being in the presence of the physical piano.
Updated Bluetooth
Bluetooth V5 is now included in this instrument. Giving you more reliable and lower latency audio and MIDI without the need for cables. The pairing process is also more intuitive with better functionality with smartphones and other devices.
Improved DACS
The CA701 includes a new and improved DAC that vastly improves the quality of sound through the speakers and headphones. This has replaced the former 1-bit processing method and now has a three-stage process of converting the CA701's internal sounds into physical sound waves. The result is a more natural and acoustic feeling piano sound.
Six-speaker system
The CA701 features a six-speaker system that is designed to immerse you in the sound of your instrument as if it were an acoustic grand piano. There are two front-facing tweeters that provide the higher frequencies, two top-facing speakers provide the midrange and the bottom speakers located underneath the keyboard provide the low end and bass.
With the CA701, the diffuser panels have been improved upon the previous generation. These are mounted above the top-facing midrange speakers and expand the tonal projection and allows for a natural sound no matter where in the room the listener is.
New touch panel and Virtual Piano Artisan
The CA701 features an improved anti-glare display for the 5-inch touch panel. The smooth matte surface is less slippery, allowing for smoother operation. It also has a reduced amount of reflections making the viewing angle wider too. This vastly improves the viewing experience while you're sitting at the instrument. The panel can also be turned off completely which reduces the amount of distraction when playing.
The Virtual Technician has been improved with the new Virtual Piano Artisan functionality. Now you have a unified list of parameters to edit as well as presets for different modes. For players who experiment with tuning or take part in historically informed performances then the temperament can be altered without diminishing the quality of the piano sounds.
New cabinet design
This piano now has a more impressive presence in your practice space thanks to the extra height added to the body. Clear acrylic score support pins are subtly embedded in the base of the music stand allowing for heavier music sheets or books to be held in place reliably. The pedals have been improved with a deeper distance, more like this instrument's acoustic counterpart.
