Kawai KDP120 Digital Piano

Q: Looking at the Kawai CL36 and KDP90 - what is the difference as they are similar in price?

A: The features of both instruments are exactly the same - they have the same number of sounds and recording facility, both have 3 pedals.  Where they differ is that the CL36 has a newer piano sample and action so in theory should be better; but the KDP90 has a larger speaker (same output just larger) so offers a fuller tone.  The KDP90 is also built into a cabinet with a lid so it's a tough choice. Most people we speak to tend to opt for the KDP90 as it offers a fuller sound with all the features of the CL36 but in a better cabinet with a lid.  The only time customers tend to choose the CL36 is when space is an issue as it is extremely compact.

Q: How easy is it to assemble a Kawai KDP90?

A: The KDP90 is quite easy to assemble - it's just worth noting that we recommend 2 people lift the top keyboard as it is quite heavy.  You'll probably have the piano fully assembled and ready to go in about 30 minutes.  There aren't hundreds of parts and you don't need to built it 'key-by-key'!  It's simply a case of assembling the stand and then fixing the keyboard section to the stand.
