Casio PX-110 Privia Digital Piano Review by Cathryn Rhodes

My Overall Rating:

The Casio PX-110 Privia Digital Piano has a fantastic acoustic sound and feel, thanks to some of Casio’s best technology. The PX-110 features an 88 key scaled hammer action keyboard and a multi stereo sampled tri-element ZPI sound source. This ZPI sound source includes separate wave forms for strong, medium and light key pressure, meaning that the differences in sounds are accentuated just as they would be on an acoustic piano. The stereo sampling gives natural sounding notes that provide sound quality so similar to an acoustic piano you won’t be able to tell the difference. Lower frequency sounds are improved by a Bass reflex System. The weighted keys mean that the Casio PX-110 really feels like the real thing, with lower notes feeling heavier and higher notes lighter. Just like any other digital piano the Casio Privia PX-110 includes other sounds such as organ, pipe and strings. It also has a layer function that allows you to play two tones at once and a split feature that allows you to split between two different tones. The Casio PX-110 Privia Digital Piano has the best of both worlds.

This digital piano is currently on sale at Amazon for $899 through this link

ACTUAL USER FEEDBACK:

Michael Folie,

“I bought this piano for my wife’s birthday, she had wanted a piano for years. There wasn’t much space in our house so after some research I decided on the PX-110. My wife is very happy with it, she says it feels and sounds just like a real piano. All in all a very good purchase, this is an excellent product.” Paraphrased for size – Read Original Here.
