Essential Information About the Kawai CA701 Rosewood Piano
- Premium grand piano-style touch thanks to the Grand Feel III solid wood action, featuring escapement and "Ivory Touch" and "Ebony Touch" surfaces.
- Detailed and expressive concert sound with SK-EX Rendering, 88-note sampling, Harmonic Imaging XL, and 256-note polyphony.
- Powerful and immersive sound projection: 6-speaker system, 55 W + 55 W amplification, and realistic soundstage in the room.
- Modern comfort for playing and learning: Bluetooth Audio and MIDI, 5-inch LCD touchscreen, USB recording, and extensive educational library.
A Concert Artist Model Designed to Recapture the Feel of a Grand Piano at Home
The CA701 embodies Kawai's "Concert Artist" spirit: offering a high-end furniture digital piano capable of delivering both the precision of touch, harmonic richness, and dynamic response expected by discerning pianists. Designed for home or studio use, it combines a very "acoustic" approach (wooden action, fine adjustments) with modern tools (Bluetooth, recording, touchscreen) to support both daily practice and in-depth repertoire work.
Keyboard Design
With its 88 solid wood keys and Grand Feel III action, the Kawai CA701 aims for a sensation close to that of a grand piano: controlled inertia, comfortable repetition, and precise dynamic control. The escapement simulation enhances realism in pianissimos and fast attacks, while the Ivory Touch and Ebony Touch finishes improve grip and fingering stability. Thanks to 3 sensors per key and adjustable velocity curves (Light, Normal, Heavy, Off), the instrument adapts equally well to classical playing and more modern approaches.
Sound Quality
The SK-EX Rendering sound source emphasizes the character of a Shigeru Kawai concert grand piano, with 88-note sampling and a rendering designed to preserve the evolution of timbre and resonances. The Harmonic Imaging XL technology supports harmonic depth and continuity of nuances, with a 256-note polyphony to play dense pieces with pedal without interruption. The CA701 offers 96 voices to broaden styles (pianos, strings, organs, and textures), and the Spatial Headphone Sound enhances spatial perception when using headphones. On the sound projection side, the 6-speaker system and 55 W + 55 W amplification create a wide, coherent, and immersive sound image.
Built-in Effects
- Reverb: 6 types
- Chorus: 3 types
- Brightness: -3 to +3
- DSP
- Modulation: Chorus, Tremolo, Auto Pan, Phaser, Rotary
- Delays: Stereo, Ping, Triple
