Casio PX-800 Privia Digital Piano Review by Cathryn Rhodes

My Overall Rating:

Available on Amazon for $899.95 here.

The Casio PX-800 Privia Digital Piano with Weighted Scaled Hammer Action Keys has a real grand piano sound and feel to it, which is great compared to many of the other digital pianos on the market which are just a little too digital. The weighted touch sensitive keys allow you to play a full range of realistic sound, just like the real thing. This is a great package.

The Good:

Very realistic acoustic piano sound – not digital
Small enough to fit nicely in your house
Easy to assemble and fairly lightweight
Stylish -looks good in your living room
Uses state of the art technology to give it the sound and feel of a real grand piano
Record your performances to listen to again

This digital piano is currently on sale with a 25% discount on Amazon.com

The Bad:

Foot pedal bar is plastic and a bit light (pedals themselves are quite sturdy though)

This digital piano is great for:

Anyone who wants a digital piano for recreational use
People who want a digital piano that has the feel and sound of an acoustic piano
People who are a little more serious about their music and want a top quality digital piano

Let’s look at some of the features:

88 full size, hammer action, weighted keys
State of the art engineering gives it a real acoustic, natural piano sound
Touch sensitive keys for acoustic feel and sound
Acoustic resonance effect – reproduces the harmonic resonance present within a real grand piano
162 tones and 82 songs built in
Expanded song memory with an SD card slot for storage of songs you download
USB/MIDI so you can download music off the internet to learn
Custom wooden stand with damper and soft/sostenuto pedals
Headphone connections and stereo out so you can connect to other equipment

The Bottom Line:

Overall, the Casio PX-800 Privia Digital Piano is simply one of the best digital pianos on the market. All the technology that has gone into it has given it a very authentic grand piano feel and sound. It’s everything you could want and at a reasonable price too. With the PX-800 you’ll feel like a master pianist.

If you want to buy this digital piano I highly recommend you buy it through Amazon here. You won’t find it cheaper elsewhere!

ACTUAL USER FEEDBACK:

Mark Heneghan,

“I looked all over the internet to find a digital piano that was small enough for my house but still performed to a high level and looked nice. I am happy with the PX-800, everything about it is quite authentic, with no digital sound. All in all this is a great purchase and I would highly recommend it” Paraphrased for size – Read Original Here.
