Feeling grand

The Kawai CA-701 is a digital piano that weighs in at almost 77kg (nearly 170lbs) and has a full complement of 88 wooden keys with Kawai's Grand Feel III mechanism and Ivory/Ebony Touch finish, as well as a maximum polyphony of 256 voices. In addition to the two outstanding acoustic grand piano sounds, with five rendering characteristics, the Kawai CA-701 also offers 94 other sounds that can be freely split and combined, as well as an excellent effects section. The target audience is pianists who want to get as close as possible to the feel of playing a real piano, but who appreciate the many advantages of a digital piano, among them affordability, the ability to practice silently with headphones and to record and transmit their own music, and Bluetooth connectivity.

Endless possibilities

The Kawai CA-701 is available in different colour variants, which can vary in price; there are also cheaper and more expensive models in the CA series, which differ in terms of their keyboards, sound quality, and loudspeakers among other things. The CA-701 is equipped with a speaker system with two 55W speakers and a diffuser. As with its predecessor, the CA-79, it is operated via a 5" touch display. The CA-701 offers a line input and output as well as two headphone outputs (mini-jack and full-size jack, respectively). MIDI data can be sent directly to a computer via the USB-to-host connection, and a new feature is that audio and MIDI data can be sent and received via Bluetooth.

Part of the furniture

The Kawai CA-701 is intended for discerning, advanced-level pianists, especially if they are used to a real piano and thus value a sophisticated hammer action and a realistic key feel. This digital piano strongly resembles a real upright piano, but can of course also be connected to a computer, or even a smart device via Bluetooth. The Kawai CA-701 allows musicians to practise silently, thanks to its quiet keyboard and headphone jacks – this is a big plus for apartment dwellers and families in particular. And with Kawai's Virtual Technician function, pianists can fine-tune the digital piano's outstanding sound to suit their own playing style.

About Kawai

Kawai is a Japanese manufacturer which has specialised in building upright and grand pianos since its inception in 1927. Since 1986, Kawai has also been producing digital pianos. Right from the start, the name "Kawai" stood for innovation: For example, Kawai produced the first digital piano with keys made entirely of wood, and also made the first keyboard to truly replicate the action of a grand piano. The list of artists who have chosen Kawai is long, and it includes both Classical pianists like Warren Mailley Smith, Ashley Fripp, and Mikhail Pletnev, and popular keyboardists like Herbert Grönemeyer, Ingo Reidl (Pur), and Don Airey (Deep Purple), among others.

Modern interpretations

The Kawai CA-701 can be conveniently operated via the touch display, and there is also a free Piano Remote Control app for iOS and Android. MIDI data are transmitted via the USB port and audio data via Bluetooth. The digital piano has three pedals (with half-pedal function) for an authentic and real playing feel. There is a Lesson Function for piano students – and Kawai has prudently included two headphone jacks to enable a teacher and student (or any two pianists) to play together. A wise investment might also be the Kawai CA-701 package that Thomann offers, which includes a piano stool and headphones.

Premium-Digital-Piano von Kawai
FiatLux 28.03.2024
Das Kawai CA 701 ist ein wahnsinnig gutes Digital-Piano. Nach langer Spielpause wollte ich mir wieder ein Piano kaufen und hatte zuerst das Kawai CN201 bestellt. Leider war ich mit dem CN201 nicht zufrieden. Es ist auch ein tolles Piano, aber dann habe ich festgestellt, dass ich doch etwas hochwertigeres haben möchte - sowohl vom Spielgefühl als auch von der Optik und vom Klang her.
Vier oder fünf Tage danach bin ich dann zu Thomann gefahren, um ein paar andere Modelle zu testen. Was den Preis angeht, wollte ich nicht mehr als 2000 Euro ausgeben, aber .... :)
Hatte zuerst das Kawai CA 401 im Blick, hab es bei Thomann getestet, war auch zufrieden, hab dann aber aus reiner neugier das CA 701 ausprobiert und ja ... danach hieß es Kawai CA 701 oder nix. :)

Die Tastatur fühlt sich unglaublich gut an und der Klang ist ebenfalls hervorragend. Die knapp 700 Euro mehr im Vergleich zum CA 401 sind es wirklich wert. Ich kenne das Vorgängermodell CA79, welches auch sehr gut klang, aber das CA 701 ist um noch ein Stück besser geworden.
Außerdem sind noch sehr viele Notenbücher mit dabei und das Piano verfügt über sehr interessante und nützliche Features.

Fazit: Dieses Digital-Piano kann ich sowohl jedem Anfänger als auch Fortgeschrittenen herzlich empfehlen. Ein TOP-Instrument mit vielen zusätzlichen Features.

Tolles Gesamtpaket mit vollem Klang
Pia7 15.03.2023
Das Digitalpiano wurde innerhalb der Lieferzeit geliefert.
Optisch sieht es sehr edel aus und auch die Gewichtung der Tasten ist super angenehm.
Vor allem begeistert bin ich von dem Klang, der unglaublich voll klingt. Sogar die tiefen Töne klingen angenehm und nicht so hart und "künstlich".
Lediglich die Bedienung (man kann auf einem Display etliche verschiedene Modi und Soundvarianten, etc. einstellen) wirkt auf den ersten Versuch ein kleines bisschen kompliziert. Es ist allerdings fast selbsterklärend und man "kommt sehr schnell rein".
Insgesamt bin ich hellauf begeistert!

Très bon touché avec une riche variété de sons.
Un tout petit peu décevant concernant la puissance sonore.
