What Digital Piano Best to Buy
- Image via Wikipedia
What digital piano should I get a Yamaha Arius YDP160 or Yamaha YDP223? I’m thinking of getting one but I just can’t decide on which of the two should I get. My budget is 9 to 00. So this two is not a problem. If anyone has other suggestions on what should I get, feel free to say it because I’m still on the market, still looking around.
I just want to know, if you are me which of these two Yamaha Digital Piano(above) should I pick.
Thanks!
btw, i want the feel of a real acoustic piano. so which one of these two is your best bet?
I checked the specs and they both look absolutely identical, which doesn’t surprise me in the least. Keyboard manufacturers have "planned obsolescence" policies just like cars -models change every few years even if there wasn’t any substantial change. There hasn’t been any truly significant progress in digital pianos since the old Kurzweils began to offer a weighted action (that was early 90s).
The key is, how are you going to listen to the piano? Usually the built-in speakers are worse than terrible. If I were you I would buy the cheapest piano you find as long as you like the action (the only way to know is by playing it) and buy a really good pair of studio monitors. The most expensive digital piano run through bad speakers sounds like crap.
